I have been on Prolia for 3 years and I don’t seem to have any negative side effects or else I am just too stupid to realize it! I had spinal surgery after breaking three bones and since the surgical procedure, I have been unable to walk without a roll about because my balance has not been adequate to do so. However, recently my legs are stronger and my balance is better so that I can walk with just a cane. That to me is miraculous! I eat a healthy diet as recommended by the Mayo Clinic and take several pills including Gabapentin 200 mg. before bedtime together with .5 mg. of Clonazepam and I sleep like a baby most nights (which is also miraculous). I don’t get out much because I stopped driving after the surgery because my right leg was not as strong as it used to be and I was concerned about my ability to brake when needed to avoid an accident but I am considering trying to drive safely once again. I spend a lot of time praying and asking our Lord to accept any suffering that I may be going through (since this Osteoporosis has left me with limited ability) without feeling sorry for myself. Life is not always easy but (on the other hand) it was not meant to be. I am a Christian and I believe that if we love our Heavenly Father (and ALL OF HIS CHILDREN) and accept any suffering that comes our way while we are on this earth , we will live for all eternity
with a joy that we cannot even imagine, So, hang in there my dear friends and make the best decisions about your illness that you can and try to live life with both acceptance and thanksgiving for all the good things in your life.
