Does Prolia Have The Side Effect Of Edema? Would Anyone Happen To Have Any Information On Side Effects? Thank You,
I have been on Prolia for two years; I have edema in my lower legs and feet. I feel it is from Prolia; I just went to a new doctor, and she said no one has ever reported that. As I was leaving, she told me to find that information. So, I am contacting anyone with information on that side effect.
thats my left knee sorry
DES Baby - Diethylstilboestrol
Do you know if there has been any research to determine if babies of mothers given Diethylstilboestrol (DES Baby) are more likely to develop Osteoporosis? I am the only child, out of 100+ relatives of two generations that has been diagnosed with osteoporosis. I am also the only DES baby in the family. Thanks for looking into this.
I realize that if mom had not been given the drug, I would not have been a miscarriage or another stillborn. Just curious that is all.

I do suffer from upper back and neck pain. Rounded shoulders started years ago.
I would love to know if treatment can reverse any of these symptoms…

You’re a physician will do a x-ray. He has to before you can see an orthopedic specialist.
Isn't It Odd That Almost All The Doctors Are Ready To Handout Prescription Medications For Anything That Is Wrong With Us?
Isn't it odd that almost all the doctors are ready to handout prescription medications for anything that is wrong with us, INSTEAD of telling us that we must eat better and get the proper exercise or physical therapy to help our conditions??? I wish we had good and caring doctors who followed the oath they made, when they became a doctor.
so true Pam!
Has Anyone Experienced Vertebral Fractures And Scoliosis?
I refused bone meds out of fear of side effects and have suffered four vertebral fractures and scoliosis. I am miserable and now my oncologist says they probably can’t be fixed by Kyphoplasty because I have discs involved. But I need an MRI and to see a neurosurgeon. I’ve been in a recliner for seven months and I feel my life is over. Can anyone relate or help me?
Hi I have had 4 vertibral fractures . 3 I had fixed long ago with surgery and now am waiting to get the 4th fixed. Ins. is holding it up. I have had it for 6 mo. now. I had a MRI. I have been sleeping… read more

Thank you
You should have quite regular scan I was told by past doctors but the one I have now says no.
How Did You Choose Your Treatment?
I went against my endo's recommendation and choose what I thought to be the least invasive drug with the fewest side effects after I was unable to take Fosamax. I am currently taking Evista, Ca and Vit D but I am scheduled for my second bone scan. I am hoping to have made progress but my doctor is not hopeful. He wants me to choose between Forteo and Tymlos. He says I am not building bone and these are the best options for this issue. I don't want to take any of these drugs because of all the… read more
