After reading of your problems barbie, so much is simular to my friend jean, she also has ic, that is how l met her, through the ic group. l know about her other health problems, re pagetts and osteo, diagnosed following a fall and broken arm, which led to the prolia,
she also has heamo, hiatus hernia and is coeliac, a few other things, but she has also found difficulty with her swallowing, having to have tiny amounts, feeling that same pressure in the abdomen, which she puts down to the hernia, reflux, and leading to some breathing problems, think much is due to immune problems, as l and others with ic often have other simular conditions,
ibs, rhinitus, skin probs, reaction to penicillin few others,
so it seems as someone posted previously, and common sense l guess, those with immune problems are more likely to have bad reactions to drugs even the well tested ones, which prolia isnt not long term, my friend past her 6 month 7-8 wk ago, she,s not as ill as she was, though her back pain and ability to walk more than a few yards hasnt improved, she is now referred to a pain clinic with a view to getting a spinal injection to help with pain, still waiting till end november. But she always states to me and anyone involved including dr,s she thinks prolia made her worse. l will copy and send latest comments, will def relate to the abdomen prob amongst other symptoms, but she appreciates reading latest. Anyway best wishes to all.

I had no side effects with my first shot six months ago. I had my second one five days ago. First my arm was sore then my entire back was very sore which kept me up for the past five nights.I also had a dry chest cough. I am feeling the discomfort slowly lifting. I am too frightened to continue the medication.

I started Prolia July, 2011 after having been on Boniva over 5 years. Started having side effects after one month. These include pain in neck and shoulders,skin irritation,dizzyness,headache and fever,sleep disturbancesand most unusual of all - brown spots od all sizes appeared on my arms and legs. I will not take the second shot and hope my symptoms decline in time.

Now that I quit taking the Prolia I am starting to feel better. I was suppose to take it Oct 24 but refused it.
To all the people that are still taking the drug please talk to your Pharmacist about it. I did and new right away I never should have taken the drug. I have COPD and it just made it worse for me. Please please, talk to your Pharmacists .
Merry Christmas SedonaIV

I took Prolia in October. No problems till day 10. Then I was taking a shower and noticed numbness in my right leg and foot. Didn't really think it was Prolia until next day when it went to other leg and foot, both arms, and tingling around lips. It's January 1st and I am no better. As a mater of fact I got up this morning and my left arm is really numb. I've had a chronic dry cough but never thought anything of it till I read these posts. Also my numbness and tingling are down the inside of my arms and include both my thumbs and index fingers. Both my legs the numbness is down the outside of my legs, and the heels and the big toe and second toes of both feet. It's been 3 months and has not let up at all. I definitely will not be getting my second injection in April

I had my first Prolia injection in July, 2011. I have had no side effects that I can tell at all. I have osteoporosis, and was on Forteo for 2 years. The Forteo didn't do that much to correct the osteoporosis, and I needed something else. My endo didn't want me on Boniva, or any of the others, but did recommend Prolia. I hope it helps my bones, but haven't had the followup scan to see yet. I suspect the dr. will want to wait a year at least for that to see.

I had my first shot of Prolia 7 days ago. since then I have developed small sores on my arms and hands. I have pain in the bones of my arm mostly stabing pains that dont last long but hurt like heck. Severe Upper back pain as well as numbness to the skin where the back pain is. Not sure if it is related but today my ancles swelled up kinda unusual because I take water pills for my blood pressure. I hope the symptoms don't continue to get worse.

I have been on Prolia since it's approval, Had 3 injections so far and the side effects have been terrible.
Pain throughout my whole body for 1.5 years now.
I have been told not to take it anymore, presently getting injections in my lower back to reduce the pain and also on Endocet pain killers.
I wish I had never started this stuff as had had previously bad side effect from Fosamax and Actonel.
I'm wondering how long it will take before this is out of my system.
I'm 72 years old and hope to have some more years left without the pain.

After the first shot the pain was not so bad, however it got progressively worst. After finding this web site and reading all the reports i was convinced not to have anymore shots.
My pain clinic now has several patients with the same results as I had. I'm now of the shot since September 2011 and hope to start feeling better.

l have posted before for my friend who had one prolia shot and suffered pain and illness, now nr a year ago and the side effects have decreased quite a bit. In a couple of weeks she goes for the spinal injection for the worsening back pain, along with meds to build the bone up, re pagets, osteo, she,s hoping the spinal jab will help, re susan can you say if and how much the spinal injection helps you, so l can pass the info on, she,s a bit worried over side effects from that, but needs it.

I have no side effect from the spinal injections and it helps for 3-4 weeks of less pain.Its not going away completely.
My pain specialist wants to go and give me injections in my spine from top to bottom. I'm not sure if I will go ahead with that.

Deb, if you read the adverse effect information here:


https:/­/­rxchat.com/­wiki/­Prolia/­

You'll see that it is known to cause joint pain and generally when a medication is known to cause one type of pain, it isn't very surprising that it may also cause other types of pain issues.

You should definitely discuss it with your doctor.

Is there anything else I can help with?

It has now been 18 days since my first injection of Prolia and unfortunately it has only got worse. The pain in my back continues but is more severe the numbness is still there as well. The pain in my arm is there constantly it don't go away. and my new symptoms are, I get charlie horse's in both my legs at the same time it is so painful and each episode lasts about 20 minutes. when it finally goes away the soreness is almost as bad. I wonder if this will continue or could it go away. Not sure If I want to pay another $1000 to inflict pain on myself.
