Why is it that when there is an extreme reaction to one of these injections the provider usually says that they don’t think it was caused by the medication. This blows my mind. It makes me very hesitant to try anything.

I had my first (and last!) Prolia shot on 4/6/23. It was fine for 6 days. On day seven I woke up with so much pain I could not get out of bed. Severe pain in hips, spine and legs left me unable to walk. My vision was so blurred I couldn't drive a car. I have neuropathy and sciatica which were well controlled with medication. After Prolia, they both blew up, out of control. I had 2 uti's within a month (I hadn't had a UTI in 20 years). That's just the highlights. It took about 3-4 months to get completely back to normal. When I told my endo what happened, he didn't deny that it was the Prolia, but said it wasn't a normal reaction. Well, no kidding! I wonder if all these serious reactions are not normal because they never get reported? In any event, I won't be taking any of these meds in the future. I've had fractures, the Prolia was worse.
