Prolia Injection Side Effects
(Newest replies first)

Aprox 2 weeks after the prolia injection I started to experience nausea and weight loss. Also, loss of appetite and a keen sense of smell developed. It was difficult to eat or smell cooked food. It has been months and these symptoms have decreased dramatically. In contacting their website they would not confirm or deny this as a side effect of the drug. Has anyone else experienced nausea w/this drug?

REPORT

I have something on my left breast. It's too small for them to see what it is at the moment. I go back to the breast center in May 2021 so we can find out what this is.

There is no history of breast cancer in my family.

I've been trying to research if Prolia does something to the breasts. Some researchers say it protects a woman to a certain point from breast cancer. Still, I've read some posts in the forum about women getting cancer after taking Prolia when there wasn't a history of it in their families.

Suggestions for other places to look would be much appreciated. I would like to have solid information to give to the doctor. It's common sense to believe she would know but I haven't found that to be the case with most doctors. Most of my doctors appreciate the information I bring them. I want to be armed with all the information I can.

Many thanks in advance for your help and suggestions!
Nikki

Re: Kazz (# 20)

Did you have a genetic test done for Celiac? If not, you could be gluten intolerant which gives the same symptoms and treated with a gluten-free diet. A biopsy is done to check for Celiac. Here's a link for more detailed information. Despite having ancestors from Ireland, Wales, Scotland and England I have gluten intolerance and not Celiac.

Here's link in case anyone is interested: https://celiac.org/about-celiac-disease/screening-and-diagnosis/screening/

Hi Kazz,
A few years ago I reported issues with FDA and I called Amgen and reported it as well.
If I can find a connection with Prolia and the breast issue, I need to tell the doctor and then report it to the FDA.

Hugs,
Nikki

Re: Anna (# 19)

Could you please tell me where to find the information about Prolia giving people cancer? I've been looking around but can't find anything.

I've developed something...they aren't sure what this spot is on my left breast. I go back for another mammogram and ultrasound in May 2021. They said it was too small to know what this is.

I'm scared. The breast doctor who looked at the results was pushing the Keto diet. She said, "Do you want cancer?" Dumb question. "No." Many cancers feed on glucose (sugar) which is why she wants me to go on Keto. Truth be known, it is a difficult diet. I do feel better eating the French way and may continue to do so as I was finally starting to feel better and lose weight slowly.

If anyone has any suggestions or knows of breast issue after having been on Prolia, I would appreciate your comments. I hate to blame everything on Prolia but it's difficult not to.

Hugs and blessings,
Nikkie

I have experienced the nausea and sores in my mouth along with other issues that are directly associated with Prolia and I had only one injection Mar.7/19.

It has been 13 months since I received a prolia infusion. My doctor will not give me another. The reason: right after I recieved the prolia I developed severe stomach issues. The cramping is less now but nothing stays in my system. To date I have lost just over 40 lbs. I have several additional issues as a result. The doctors claim they cannot do anything for all the additional issues until they figure out how to get my stomach issues under control.

I'm having trouble with leg pain. Also I can't s!ESP on my sides because my hips will hurt. It bone pain and a bit of muscle pain. Hoping someone else had this symptom. I guess its been about 3 weeks since I got my first shot. Nausea is not too bad but I take something for that under my tongue. Zofran. Help! The drs. don't have suggestions. I'm also on iv Rotuxin. 2nd shot in a week. Suggestions please.

I have! Funny you should say that nausea was a problem. I have it, especially at night, but that's the only meal I eat! No appetite either. Hope this goes away soon. Vomiting and dehydration are dangerous for me since I only have 1 kidney and over New Yrs. I was hospitalized w /kidney failure. Had not started the prolia yet, just a problem I have with Lupus.

Poodle: I'm sorry you have had all of the trouble that you explain. I spent 2 weeks in hospital after my stroke and the nurse had placed a sign above my bed, "NO BP OR INJECTIONS IN R ARM." She knew when I got there what to do. I'm just hoping to gain energy and strength now. I have a bad knee that needs to be replaced soon. Take care.

Gran - Drs. do make mistakes with us. The one that injected the Prolia got it in my cancer arm. She didn't bother to look at records or anything. Just grabbed a shoulder and shoved in the shot and it was definitely not subcutaneously either. I was complaining loudly and told her I was going to get a big tattoo on it that just said "NO" on it. I do hope the Prolia people make her life miserable. I don't want to ever see her again. I will strictly use my family GP Doctor. Even my pharmacy said they are getting a lot of complaints about her and it's past time she retired. There comes a time when MDs are dangerous and her time has expired. She sent me for blood work and the lady was totally ticked at me for not letting her use my right arm. Some people just don't get it!!! When we say No, we are saying it for an excellent reason. Even my Dentist knows to Rx me on antibiotics before he works on me. He knows how to read.

Poodle: I had the mastectomy on my right side. The right under arm from elbow up is sometimes numb, but no pain. The stroke left my left side weak, not the cancer. I'm well aware of not having BP or injections on/in the right arm. Most of my medical providers are aware of that too. At least all of those I've encountered. I'm 80 years old now so my strength is not what it was 30 years ago, but I'm handling all the best I can. The last 2 years have been tough for our family. May the Lord bless you and we all continue to do well.

Grannyvee, it takes a long time to get the full use of that arm back after the breast cancer and being scraped down to the bone to remove any particle of flesh. Keep working with it. You will get it back. I struggled with it for a long time but had to return to work ASAP as I needed their insurance at that time. I had used up all my vacation time and sick leave time. I was pretty young at the time too about - 46. Congrats on being a survivor. Actually, I think Prolia is worse but cancer is such a frightening diagnosis as we don't know if we are going to live or die. With Prolia we know there is an end some place in time --- just not when and neither do they or our MDs. You should get a medical bracelet so no one makes a mistake about using that arm for anything! It's off limits for blood pressure, any injections or pic lines. When they remove the lymph nodes, it removes all our protection on that side of our body. Be well~Pood
