Can Prolia be safely and reasonably discontinued?

Hi... I am just finishing 18 months of Tymlos, so my Dr. wants to start me on Prolia next. Prolia scares me, but I am figuring that losing the bone I gained with Tymlos and the probability of future broken bones scares me more. However, I am just concerned that Prolia may be a medication that causes fractures if taken for too long, in which case I may tell my Dr. that I'd like to have a different drug. Thanks for your suggestion of Tymlos... I agree... And good for others to know about this option here as well.

My doc wants me to do Reclast to lock in gains from Tymlos. Can you tolerate that? Reclast stays in the system so there isn't the same drop-off in effects if stopped, I was told. If you are not satisfied with progress, maybe you could do Evenity: I am trying to investigate that. Good luck!
