Thinking about stopping Xgeva
One think I might add is I had two compression
fractures
back when my Psa was 5664 and I started Lupron. TIA.

Denosumab vs Bisphosphonates
My metalwork did not hold, so following a further 2
fractures
, I had a T4-L4 spinal fusion. I had a very prolonged hospital stay of 5 months, due to sepsis, and a further 3 months in a spinal rehab unit. During this time L4 at the bottom of the construct fractured badly.

What are the best supplements for osteopenia
I've been told by my Primary Dr that I have "high risk for
fractures
" and to start taking Fosomax, to which I said no after reading about side effects. Please advise what daily supplements you take for osteopenia. Many thanks!

Atypical femoral fracture symptoms
Does anyone have any experience of what the symptoms of these
fractures
are? I do also have a compression fracture at L1 so it could be related to that. I have booked to see a different physio next week. Thanks

went off Xgeva for a year, have to go back on it. Ideas or tips helpful
I was put on Xgeva for a couple of years and later read on Xgeva’s website that being on it long term is likely to increase risk of
fractures
substantially, not to mention increase risk of
fractures
in random places (like the thigh).

Scan showed what was thought to be bone Mets but were fractures
The
fractures
were all thought to be bone Mets until I was given PET where cancer glows and then found out were
fractures
. Has anyone else have problems with osteoporosis after or during any treatment? Anyone else get zometa injection s to strengthen bones ?

Newly diagnosed
I have 7 vertebral compression
fractures
. I feel I have no choice but to take medication. The R.O.S. has been my only help. It's still a scary place to be though.

Have I Reinvented Myself During PMR, or has Universe Done It For Me?
I have PMR, osteoporosis and 9 vertebral
fractures
. During this roller coaster, I've developed the "one day at a time" approach to life in general, because every day brings something new with it (good and less than good). I retired once pre 2021, but not for long.

Aleve use for pain other than pmr
Most of my pain comes from my back
fractures
. As I reduce the pred. My back aches get worse. Does anyone know why an Aleve would be worse for me than some of the meds they suggest that have much more severe side effects?. I just don’t get it.🥴

Osteoporosis with gastric issues - advice please
I have 3 insufficiency
fractures
, which are still giving me a lot of pain on a daily basis. However, I also have very severe gastric issues - I have a long history of IBS, which was, until late 2021, managed by modifying my lifestyle and diet.
