Prolia Side Effects (Page 74) (Top voted first)
UpdatedI would like to know of any side effects others may have experienced after receiving Prolia infusions. Up to now I have none.
Hi Dee: Did you watch Dr. Oz a week ago Thursday,His show was alternatives that the Drug Companies don't want you to know about. It was interesting because one of the topics was taking strontium . As I said before my friend has been on it for two years and her last bone density was much improved. Can't wait until after August 13 th , my six months will be up and I am going to start on Strontium right away. I am 73 and on a few meds. I had open heart surgery at 53 - 2 MI's after that but I am much better now. Doc gives me a five year warranty after every check up, says I am doing really well. Blood pressure of an 18 year old. At least I was fine until the Prolia injection. Have to wait until after Aug 13. to start on Strontium - apparently not good to be on both. Glad you are feeling better. Wish we could all feel better. Irene
Hi Deb: We all wish that we had found this sight before taking the injection. They some get very little side effects but I have yet to hear who they are. Today I feel like I was hit by a mack truck. Really sore, can hardly walk my feet are so sore. I have never had problems with my feet. Hope you don't get any more symptoms. Praying for you. Irene
Irene,
Why are you waiting 6 months to take Strontium?
Daphne
Hi Daphne - I am waiting because the lady at the health store said it might interfere with the prolia . Even though it is natural I would be getting too much calcium and D. I haven't talked to my family Dr. about it so I have set up an appointment with him for next week, hopefully he will say it is O.K. to start now. I will keep you posted. Irene
Irene, I am feeling wonderful. So thankful I took the time to look up exactly what Prolia was and found this site.
I do have a question if anyone has info on. My Calcium levels are not at a danger level, but it seems to be creeping up. This is indicative of my intake of calcium and vitamins are going to my blood and not bones. My Mama had this happen to her and eventually had to have Parathyroid surgery. Once the surgery done, never an issue again. My Pharmacist said he wants to see my latest blood results. He is extremely interested in my Magesium levels. Apparently this goes in hand with calcium absorption. Only surg in my life was having tonsils removed at 27. Again, I am on NO meds at all, not even for Diabetes. I keep this in ck by diet and exercise. Anyone, let me know if you have faced this and what you did. thank you
Hi Irene,
I too had a shot of Prolia, then became educated on the side effects afterward. I was told that I should go ahead and start on the Stontium even though I had just had Prolia. So I did.
I hear from people that the side effects do not necessarily wear off in 6 months.

Hi Daphne- I talked to my Dr. today and he gave me the o.k. to start on the strontium, so tomorrow I am going to the Health Store to buy some.
Hi Dee: Glad you are feeling better. I am in agony today -sore all over. Your Pharmacist is right you have to take magnesium with your calcium. I don't know of anyone with your high calcium problem. I'm sure your Dr. can help you with that. Good Luck Irene
Hi Daphne: Sure glad you mentioned this about not taking with Milk. I have been and will change routine. Thanks for sharing this.
Dee
I am so glad I found this site. I had my second shot about a month ago. I was thinking that the aches, bloating, constipation, mouth sores inside and outside on the corners of my lips, sores on tongue, headaches, ear pain, sore throat, itchy scalp could be the Prolia. However, I do take alot of pills including Arimidex which causes aches, but not I am positive its the Prolia. My knee is swollen for no reason that I know of that is my only complaint that I didn't find on this site.
I have had 2 injections now....not until the second one did the side effects kick in! fluid on legs arms and ankles so bad can't wear any shoes! digestive probs and having IBS its no joke....feeling ill all the time...but the worst thing is its making the pain worst in my bones.....I am now in a wheelchair after all my struggles to remain mobile......and going around my flat with 2 sticks... I had spine fusion surgery in the hopes that I would be better...thanks to the injection I am not....plus the Consultant was no help....very impatient in fact..I hope that this is helpful.
I am so sorry that you are not feeling well. I had my injection in Feb. and I am still suffering from pain and swollen legs,feet and ankles, also struggling with weight gain. Hope you feel better soon. Irene
My mother got the shot 11 days ago, and got a rash on the back of her left thigh, behind knee and is going up onto buttocks. Tried all sorts of topical creams, but nothing is working. Anyone have any remedies, other than the doctor at this point?
Why did you take 3 shots? Hope all goes well with you.
I had 1 shot April 9, 2011, and still have symptoms, including bony growths on my gums - IBS problems, bone pain, and other horrible symptoms. I stopped with the first one. But I read that some have had the injection 18 months and still having terrible side effects.I get chills from head to toes, and then get very hot, its impossible to sleep, not knowing what will be the next wave.
Wishing you well.
I took the 3 shots on my doctors advise for my osteo. After the 3rd shot he agreed that it was not for me. Send me to a pain clinic which does not seem to help much either.
Can't wait for the day that this stuff has left my body.

Your wife was lucky to have good care in the hospital.
I went to ER about a month after getting Prolia Injection, doc never told me of side affects, I started right away feeling weak, pains everywhere, bloating, and couldn't get out of bed. ER docs never heard of Prolia and said it was too early to have side-affects???? Its been 15 months now - and still suffering, with blurred vision, pains in joints, IBS problems (had all tests) all OK, reflux - body overheating, then cold, shortness of breath, bony growth on the gums of my teeth. Never bothered to go back to doc that gave me the injection and never will I take another, of anything that is injectable, as you can't get rid of it. Its the new 'kid' on the block. They are now working on a 6 month injection for people who have high cholesteral. Also have heart problems and will be in the hospital for 2 days getting special test - resting stress test, as my heart has been acting up. Never before did I have any of these problems. Broke my wrist, have no osteo - but was sent for this shot anyway, its new, and they are trying it out for experiements - Hope your wife gets better. Glad she got good treatment at the ER.
I want to thank everyone who continues to post their experiences with Prolia. Had it not been for this website, I probably like a lot who have posted here, would have taken the shot and had issues like most of you. Thankful a RED flag came up in my head when they said "Get approval and it came in Injection form" This just said to me, "Check the facts". So sorry and praying for all who took the shot, they will get this nasty drug out of their system. As I have said before, I take absolutely NO RX drugs. I truly do believe in Alternative medicine. To be almost 68 and in pretty good health and managing my Diabetes with diet and exercise, I am blessed. Thank you all for the insight into Prolia. I am telling everyone at Curves where I work out about this shot.
when you have lost mobility and in more pain for a yr of your life plus could not go to 2 special occasions in your grandchildren's life, then people should be warned that its not for everyone. Yes, you are right in one way, it does suit some people...if you could see my legs and ankles....which are the side effects of Prolia then you judge it properly....
Cheryl,
I agree with you. I too was in perfect health until the injection of Prolia. What's with the weird sensation around the mouth, front lips all about? I don't have it all the time, but it came on immediately after the injection.

Good question about the sensation in my lips, it comes and goes on me too. It's a weird sensation...... I received my one and only shot last October and none of these problems have cleared up.
