Prolia treatment for osteoporosis: What is your experience?

I don't know! Good question. My doc has said I can try 1/4 dose Reclast after my Tymlos and during my cancer treatment, before Tymlos, the docs were also talking about a smaller dose of Reclast. But I don't know about dosing Prolia, sorry! Tymlos is daily so ramping up is done over days or maybe two weeks. But Prolia is so infrequent I am not sure how ramping up could be possible. So the question really is whether a lower dose injection would be allowed and of benefit.

Thanks windyshores! I see so many posts describing bad experience with Prolia -- therefore I am concerned. However, it has been pointed out that people with a bad experience are more likely to post as compared to people with no side effects. Do you know -- or does anyone know -- how to get an overview of the chances of side effects? or how to get information on who is most likely to experience negative side effects? or how to find suggestions for things to do to reduce side effects? Thanks to you and everyone else for thoughts on this.
