I’ve been on xgeva monthly for years then switched to guarterly about a year ago. I’ve been having these issues which as I read about xgeva I wonder if I should go on a vacation: numbness in toes and soles of feet, pain in groin , back pain, unsteadiness . My bone mass scans have been normal. I think I should stop the injections. Any comments?

Those are not the more common side effects. Definitely talk to your doctor.
My OC changed me to quarterly injections of Xgeva also. He said that after 2 years of monthly injections, Xgeva side effects can increase. He checks my calcium levels every month. I take 1200 mg of slow release calcium with D3, (600mg in AM and 600mg in the evening.
I have fatigue most days but no other side effects right now. I just finished my last Xofiga infusion last week. That also causes fatigue.
I just got blood tests back and all were in normal range including calcium.
