I agree with srogers, I did a lot of research on reclast and prolia and found in clinical trails that reclast had a smaller percentage of side effects. Talk with your doctor. Also reclast is an infusion every 2 years. Good luck and hugs jde

Hey, it's never too late! You should still have a lot of living to do! I would consult my doctor and listen to what he/she says
I have severe Osteoporosis and still doing exercises (which really helps with the stiffness!) and taking Prolia and trying to walk and walk. I am a very tenacious (stubborn) person so I would say if you trust your doctor and are happy with his/her care take their advice--
You don't fail until you give up and quit!!
Best wishes. I would love to hear about your progress

Sorry to hear about your numbers, mine are so bad too, -4.4 I have no pain. Supposed to start prolia 2 years ago, been postponing bc I am afraid of all side effects, and, you can never stop prolia. I have been on medications for 15 years, actonel, atelvia, forteo, nothing worked for me. Still thinking what my next step would be. Taking Naturello , is a vegan calcium from Amazon, vit. D, complex B and Omega 3..Let me know what treatment you decided to do. I send you my best wishes for your health!!!

Never to late, I'm 74 and have had reclast infusion and no side effects so far, I'm about 2 months in. Calcium, vit D vit k and magnesium I take as well. I do have severe bone loss in my hip and spine. Walking and staying active helps!! Talk with your doctor. Best of luck and hugs!!
