the rebound effect from prolia is compression fractures and more unfortunately you just ca;t stop prolia without taking something read up on prolia and you will see. what else you can take i really do not know but it would be nice if the drs knew. i had a severe reaaction to my 1st shot of prolia and when i asked my dr what do i do he said i don't know made me feel real happy i have posted mu ordeal with prolia which has been horrible after not taking another shot i had 2 compression fractures since and for dome reason developed ra can't tell you why because no one knows but i can say before prolia i was relatively pretty healthy. my ra dr did say it could be possible the prolia caused the ra but he said we will never know i posted under prolia mistake and boy what a mistake it was i now have a little high glucose reading from the medication so i could get diabetes and the list just goes on and on very depressing to say the least i see no light at the end of this tunnel just more heartache and pain

I'm so sorry to hear about your problems with Pro. You are the second person that I have heard getting RA from it. I am on Tymlos and don't know what I will take after that. My Dr recommends Pro but I'm scared to take it. I have Reflux and other stomach issues. I will ask if I can get a test dose of Reclast.
Just read your post from January re: Prolia reactions. I too was talked into Prolia by 3 Doctors-giving me scare tactics that I would have fractures and need my bones cemented back. TERRIBLE!! I am entering my 5 th month of Prolia with tons of side effects-namely flu like symptoms for one week after initial dose, cracking of joints doing yoga, bleeding inflamed gums (Which I NEVER HAD) water retention and the list goes on and on BUT most importantly I was NEVER informed that I could not go off Prolia cold turkey. At least I only have one injection but that too I can have spinal fractures. I am in exceptional physical shape-75 -exercise about 14 hours a week and my readings are not horrible--2.9 is the worst -everything about normal. Shame on the Doctors for not giving full disclosure of the side effects and the rebound effect if not followed up with another shot. My Doc wants me to go on actonel after this. And by he way the Prolia injection is $2,400 a shot. Good money for all involved.

Very sorry to hear about your experience with Prolia. For my 3 injections, I did not experience any side effects. Nontheless, the thought of being stuck on Prolia for life with no easy way to exit scares me and I decided to stop before my 4th injection
