Hi, ABSOLUTELY NO PROLIA for me.
I will be researching and having an appt. with a NYC nephrologist different medications who has been part of research for osteoporosis medication. My transplant dr who are very young just referred me to orthopedic specialist.
Prolia will not be on the list of any of the medication I may choose. The orthopedic dr I had an appt with initially who recommended Prolia was asked how many transplant patients he had treated and he would not answer me. When I asked if any other medications he could recommend he told me to make another appointment. The fact answer this doctor could share any information about other transplant patients( with no names of course) concerned me. IT may have been he had not treated a transplant patient ever?
We are in a class of our own. Each transplant patient is different I understand. I just wanted to know other womens's experience was after taking Prolia. I understand each person will have. a different reaction. I am glad some individuals have not had any dental issues while others have. . Yes, I also am aware some women who have been on medication to no avail. Some have broken bones which kicks women and maybe some men into total depression.
There probably isn't one perfect medication. Being monitored probably is the best tool to determine if a medication is working and sustaining in addition to improving our bone health. Transplant patients have to be cognizant of how anti rejection medication will interact with medication for osteoporosis understand each person has a different body chemistry with medication is prescribed for different medical conditions. IF a doctor is honest and can explain the side effects with certain medication and patients experience and be totally truthful that a plus. Thanks again.
