After I received my second Prolia injection I have had severe joint, muscle and bone pain. Does anyone know how to relieve these side effects or reverse these symptoms?

Good afternoon @hip123 and welcome to Connect. Darn it....I am so sorry you are having undesirable side effects from your recent Prolia injection. I just had my second injection last week.

Before starting Prolia, I called the company and asked them these questions. The response was to seek ER help if necessary and urgent. If less than an emergency contact the clinician who gave you the injection.

Have your negative side effects dissipated?

May you be free and protected from inner and outer harm.

Hi, The same thing happened to me. Plus, my hair started falling out right after the first injection. I stopped with the 2nd injection as it simply was not worth it to be miserable every day. I now feel great! I told the endocrinologist (Chairman of Endocrinolgy at a large hospital and former chairman of the national endocrinology association) I was stopping and wanted to know the risk of not taking it. He calculated the risk and did not try to stop me. He put me on calcium and ergocalciferol (vitamin D). I now feel great and will never take another of those osteoporosis drugs. (I feel they only benefit the drug companies, not the patient.) By the way, it took a few months for the pain to go away, but now I am pain free and can live a normal life. Good luck!
