Anyone used Prolia? For severe OP?

Posted , 15 users are following.

i have gone through the lot- HRT, Fosamax, Actonel, Zometa, Forteo for 2 and a half years and according to my doc the only treatment available for me now is Prolia. I don't like the sound of the side effects at all! Anyone been on Prolia and can tell me about their experiences?

    I've had 2 Prolia Injections, my 3rd this May 2017. So far no side effects, but worried about doc making me continue Evista (generic Raloxifene) when some are asked to stop when they have Prolia & I've been taking Evista for 12 yrs already.  I'm 5'3" 136 lbs thin boned age 61 in Calif.  My bone density showed -3.1, after 2 inj a yr later (inj is every 6 months), bone density improved to -2.1, means I'm not out of the woods yet.  Not really sure if improvement is due to injection or bec I started taking more walks 2x a day during offc breaks to soak in the summer sun + Citracal 2x day..
