My 78 year old wife has been on Prolia (or something similar) for the last 6-7 years. In the last two years, she suffered broken bones in each arm/wrist. So much for strengthening the bones.

My 78 year old wife has been on Prolia (or something similar) for the last 6-7 years. In the last two years, she suffered broken bones in each arm/wrist. So much for strengthening the bones. She wants to quit this now. No more as she is scheduled for the last of two injections in December. The doctors don't know nothing about nothing. She pays $325/injection and the price keeps going up and the results are ridiculous.
Your wife just can’t quit Prolia. Stopping Prolia causes Prolia rebound which is increased bone loss that accelerates then sky rockets when the drug is stopped which can cause multiple spinal fractures from such minor things as rolling over in bed. The rebound can last from 30-44 months. She must relay onto another bone density drug from the same class of drugs. Please have your wife join the Facebook group Prolia Side Effects. They have a wealth of information that can be printed off. There is good chance her doctor doesn’t know anything about rebound. She must do a lot of research about this. I’m sorry I ever agreed to take Prolia and am now on Reclast which also has many side effects. These bone density drugs are a nightmare. Between Covid and my experience with Prolia I’ve lost faith in most doctors and drugs.
