I have had to have a hip replacement April 2019. I have to have a shoulder replacement in a week September 2020. My other shoulder is starting to get worse! My knee is going. Don’t know if I should continue the Prolia. I also now wonder if I should have anymore surgery till my bones are stronger and if they aren’t just give up trying

That would depend on what an MRI of your shoulder showed. You might have a frozen shoulder like my BFF had, and physical therapy took care of that for her.

I have had both my knees replaced and recently my left shoulder was replaced all due to osteoarthritis, but surgeon found severe osteoporosis in my shoulder. Now I'm on Forteo. If ever you want to talk about joint replacements, I'm your source of information. I'll answer your questions to the best of my ability.

Only bad side effects for me…. correct vitamins, lots of walking, exercise, and good evening habits have helped me, I will no longer do their Pharmaceuticals! None of them 😔🤦🏼‍♀️

I stopped taking Alendronate because of reported poor results.
