Good evening @mamgma and welcome to the Connect forum. Thank you for responding to another member. Sharing is how we build knowledge and that in itself is powerful. It is wonderful to note that you have no side effects with the Prolia injections.

As a mentor, I am able to read many responses to osteoporosis medications. It can become quite complex with so many options. We are all quite unique and our bodies handle medications differently. I can see how endocrinologists anxiously wait for patient responses. And on that note, I would like to ask you about your statement, "Prolia produces bone.....". My understanding of the purpose of Prolia is not to build bone but to protect the bone that has been created with the help of other medications like Forteo, Tymlos, and Evenity.

Would you help me understand your statement?

And may you be safe, protected, and free of inner and outer harm.
Chris

Chris. I am struck by all the complaints about side effects of various osteo meds. I personally have had none on osteo meds but have had problems with other meds....and I take as few as possible.

Is there anything written about these side effects being related to interactions with meds for other conditions that a person might be taking?

Thanx for all that you do on this forum.

Unfortunately, I cannot find where I read that bone growth during Prolia use is not brittle like the other drugs. It prevents the formation of osteoclasts. I am a bit alarmed by what I have read about discontinuation. I also am currently working on a diagnosis of lumbar spinal stenosis, which has me worried about Prolia as well.
