Thanks for clarifying. I don't have any relevant experience to share. I am however curious to know what results you got from Reclast.

Thank you for your quick response . I will be seeing an endocrinologist in the osteoporosis center in Stanford. That will be my 4th medical opinion. I have not started any treatment but will decide after this 4th opinion. Of the 3 previous consults, 2 physicians recommend reclast and 1 recommended prolia.

Have you done much reading on these drugs and how they work?
If not, I recommend you watch a video on Youtube titled: Osteoporosis Medications: Pros and Cons. Here's the link: https://youtu.be/eZIgvcM9Ous?si=wtSETKcK1WkEWGzw
