Prolia treatment for osteoporosis: What is your experience?

I had absolutely no side effects from Prolia until almost exactly two months after the shot when I began to experience intense pain and other signs of infection around three dental implants in my lower jaw. An oral surgeon removed the implants, but the pain only increased and bone was exposed. I was diagnosed with MRONJ and advised against further Prolia treatment. Fortunately, the jaw finally healed after discontinuation of Prolia and several months of antibiotic treatment along with dental rinses.

Thank you for your post !
I also had severe side effects of severe joint, muscle and bone pain 6 weeks after my second injection of Prolia. My doctors said that the symptoms I was having were not related to the Prolia. Prolia was the only thing that was introduced to me during this period and I felt the side effects had to be related. I know everyone reacts differently but it certainly helps to know ( even though I am so very sorry that you had all of the problems that you had) that I am not alone and what I felt was a real cause and effect.
Thank you
