Prolia iv
Hi all, have recently been changed from Tamoxifen to arimidex because of ongoing gynae issues. My gp suggested I have a bone density scan as a baseline. Turns out I already have osteoporosis in lumbar...
I've not long had my first prolia injection, but it was subcutaneous not IV. After 3 years on AI's(2 different ones) I went from a very normal bone density in my lumbar spine to mid range Osteopaenia in 16 months. My hip measurements while decreased, were not as dramatic and still in normal range
With osteoporosis you will get it at PBS prescription price. It's twice a year and can be given by a practice nurse very easily. Didn't hurt at all.
A couple of weeks after I started getting some increased lower back and hip pain. This lasted a good few weeks. At the moment I'm not sure if I'm just getting used to it, or if it's improving at the moment. Hopefully the latter.
I haven't noticed anything else at rhis point. I only hope it works 🤞🤞🤞
