Title: Prolia for Bones....Good or Bad?
Post by: Hootie on September 23, 2015, 09:22:07 AM

My wife's endocrinologist wants to put her on Prolia since she had a femur break even though her bone density is fine.

Anybody on here had any experience with that shot that you take twice a year? I have read many horror stories about the side effects which appear to be very real.

Charlie, Thanks for posting the link to this earlier discussion. I don't know how I missed it and I asked a very similar question as Hootie not long ago.
