About to start Prolia: What's your experience?

@callalloo as you know, Prolia is not a bisphosphonate. As I have written, my doc wants me to try a partial dose of Reclast, which is a biphosphonate, and will monitor to see if I can take breaks. Breaks are not possible with Prolia.
I foresee years of going on and off bone builders as needed, maintenance with Reclast, hopefully at low dose, and hopefully breaks during which I would emphasize "whole body" approaches.

I'm sorry if I gave the impression that I was directing that question to your, or your specific doctor's, plan.
Rather I wondered how, in general, people who do grow bone with non-bisphosphinates, protect against the anti-resorptive risks of bisphosphonate drugs, or Prolia, when later put on them to protect that new bone as I'd not found any answer to that anywhere. Your plan makes sense. I'm hoping that, by the time you're seguing off Tymlos, there are myriad ways to also increase bone strength and fight fracture risk with a new approach as well.
