About to start Prolia: What's your experience?

I am on my 10th dose out of 12 of Evenity. I don't tolerate bisphosphonates and won't take Prolia because of the side effects. Since I was started on Evenity, Tymlos and Forteo are not options. I believe that diet, exercise and supplements are not enough for me to maintain bone density and avoid further fractures. My plan is to begin Evista (raloxifene) which is a SERM (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator). It has its own significant side effects. I believe this is the best path for me.

The SERM might be a good plan. Are you using an endocrinologist to monitor this? I saw one last year when my PCP wanted me to consider Fosamax and the endo has a few patients who can't tolerate anti-resorptives seeming to do well on Evista.
