Thank you proliamistake, you'll not know how many you've saved from a like fate.
Part of the problem with Prolia is that it was prescribed while so much was unknown. Clinical trials don't always pan out in the real world. The fate Evenity will bestow on some of us with osteoporosis will be on display years after its use. Hoping for the best, wary of the worst.

I just had my first visit with an Endocrinologist this week. Last year, a different doctor, an Orthopedic Surgeon, "highly recommended" Prolia, so I took one injection. When I learned more about it, I decided not to continue with the treatment. I told the Endocrinologist about the Prolia shot, she looked shocked and asked, "What was your doctor's rationale for giving you Prolia?" She went on to tell me that, though it may be the best option for some people, it should be a last resort. Knowing what I now know about the drug, her perspective makes me think that I may have found the doctor who is right for me.
