REPORT

I well know how the system works in Canada. My best friend lost his wife to cancer and the Docs did nothing!! He has now dedicated his life to helping people with cancer. We have alternative means that the Docs don't really know much about but it has been proven over and over again to be 100% successful. Pood

In January, 2017, I asked if anyone else on Prolia was experiencing hair loss. My second and last shot was September 30, 2016 and I am still losing more hair than normal. I decided I was not getting any additional shots and I supplementing my diet with magnesium, K2, Vitamin D3, Calcium, Silica for my bones and trying different things to encourage hair growth and thickening. Also, in April I suffered from a very infected gallbladder with only a couple of short incidents of abdominal pain. The last one sent me to the doctor because it lasted more than 24 hours. No previous problems like this with gallbladder. Wondering if the acute infection was a side effect of Prolia as serious infections is one of the less common side effects. I was immediately admitted to hospital and gallbladder was removed due to severe infection.

I have also experienced hair loss but started that before Prolia because of thyroid problems. I had Radio Active Iodine and now on thyroid meds. Still loosing hair but not sure why. I am using Nioxin shampoo and it helps a little.

Linda you are not getting enough of the thyroid hormone T3 which is the active hormone of the T1,T2,T3,T4, and calcitonin which our thyroid normally produces

Don't think my thyroid is doing well right now. Do not feel right and go back for blood work in October. I was good in April but something has changed. It is very hard to get it just right and keep it right. My drug store changed drug companies and I started changing so had them order from the old company. My doctor said to make sure I take from the same company and thought that was strange but think he was right. Maybe I will improve. Thanks for the advice.

Prolia and Hair Loss~saw palmetto for women, B vitamins and also add vitamin A to the mix. It should stop the shedding and will make your hair shine and healthy again. It took me a long time searching on the net for that specific combination and I finally found it. Be well~Pood

For hair loss I found 10,000 mcg of Biotin daily to be helpful.

It wasn't effective immediately, it took some time, but my hair has stopped falling out.

I am using Nioxin shampoo for hair loss and it seems to be helping.
I did submit a complaint to FDA against Prolia and also talked to Amgen drug company and told them all of my problem. They sent me a lot of information saying how wonderful it was and had no reports of teeth, hernia problems or joint pain. I know that is not true. They also said they couldn't help me with my dental implants. I knew it would be a waste of time but tried.

Was back to see my oral surgeon re the extraction of my fron tooth. I will now have to wait 6 months for an implant unless, as she said, I need a bone graft! Wow, I wasn't expecting that. Has anyone had one and if so how long did it take and also the cost. I know my insurance will not cover anything pertaining to an implant. They wouldn't even cover the "flipper" my dentist made as I needed a temporary tooth. Please, any info on bone grafts would be greatly appreciated.

I have had one implant and the dentist did a bone graft. In two weeks, I will have 5 more and this dentist isn't going to do bone grafts. I am worried that I may have problems without a bone graft but I don't know if they are necessary. The average cost of the implants in Arkansas is $1200 and that doesn't include the teeth. I have no idea what the teeth cost. My dentist is suppose to contact the lab and tell me what they cost. I really need 4 more after I do these 5 but they are so expensive. It has been 4 months since I had my teeth pulled after they broke off at the gum line thanks to Prolia. I will have to wait 4 months after the implants to get my teeth so it is a 8 month ordeal. I have long since spent my $1000 dental insurance this year so this is all out of pocket.

Linda~the teeth cost what an average crown would cost. Larger molars are about $1,000 each and the price goes down with size but it's still very expensive. I don't know if I can afford to have my two put in this year. I think I will wait for next year to get the crowns on the implants. My two here cost $5,000 for implants and pulling out the rootless teeth. I did have bone grafting on both of them. They do not hurt and I think I talk a little different without a full set of teeth. I'll live! It's not that long until January comes around. Right now I'm dealing with eye surgery and will not have vision in one eye for three months. Not a Prolia problem. Hugs~Pood

Had my implants today and it is rough but I will get through it. My dentist gave me a discount because I have known him all of his life and he and my son were frat brothers. I really appreciate it but do not expect a discount any more. The lab will cost more for the teeth that I will get in four months. I have an ice pack and on pain pills and he also gave me a steroid shot. It may be a long night.

Linda,
My wish for you is that your nightmare end swiftly, and that you have a complete healing.

Linda, you are lucky to only have to wait 4 months to have the crowns put on. Mine said six months which would be the middle of September. It's a very, very good thing that the X-rays show you have sufficient jaw bone for the implants. That is a huge plus for you. Have you reported yours to Amgen? I have not and I should. The only thing that stopped Prolia from taking more of mine is because it ran into a titanium implant that was already there. Even Prolia cannot get thru titanium. Soon you will be back to your beautiful self. Hugs~Pood

I did have to get two bone grafts because if thinning bone. I did call the drug company and FDA and told them what happened to me. The drug company said no one had complained about dental problems. I don't believe that. I also asked them to pay for my implants and got a letter saying they couldn't do that. Surprise, surprise. I would be willing to be in a class action lawsuit if there is one.

Linda, regarding your thyroid. For what specific reason does it have to wait until October???? It's not that difficult to draw out blood and send it to a lab to check on the levels. Any primary doctor can do that. It does not require a specialist. I know things are different up north but still, you have problems that need answers. Diana who posts here had her's operated on and now she feels 100% better and is back to her art work. You need answers honey. Get in now. Hugs~Pood
