Is it safe to take Prolia if you have Liver cirrhosis?

Most calcium tablets are ground rock, plant based calcium i(algae) is best if you have clogged arteries.

Pain And Osteoporosis
A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I have osteoporosis,and I am happy to say I have not had any broken bones! My bone density test show my 60 year old bones are like that of an 80+ year old women.However I am in pain every day, my knees,hips
,back and hands hurt the most. But my doctors say there is no pain with osteoporosis until you have a fracture or break. And X-rays have not shown much arthritis. How "much" do I need to have for them to explain the pain I have? Have any of you had pain without fracture or arthritis?

I also do myofascial massage therapy, followed by a private Pilates session. That and daily weight-bearing exercises will strengthen your muscles and bones.

Pain Under Left Breast
A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Has anyone got pain radiating from the back ( maybe spine?), to under the left breast? It is not a heart issue. Not there all the time but when it comes on it doesn't last for long but feels like when you have a stitch or a mini cramp.

Fortes Injections
A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question đź’­

My Endocrinologist wants me to take Forteo for 2 years by injection everyday as a bone builder. I am eligible through the Government as I had A femoral fracture due to the medication I was taking. My Doctor has to make application on my behalf to put me on the program. Side effects dizziness, leg cramps, soreness due to the injections. I would like your input on this program. Thank you.

Hair And Scalp
A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I have found info about osteoporosis causing hair loss for some people.
My question is - does it cause you to have an itchy scalp - not dandruff. Just a very itch scalp that feels tight when you scratch.
Just checking to see if there is anyone else out there with this.
Thanks and let’s all have a great day!

I’m Looking For Feedback Regarding Medications: Forteo/Tymlos, Prolia Or Reclast.
A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I’ve had multiple prophylactic surgeries to prevent cancer (family history is strong)
I was recently diagnosed with osteoporosis which my doctor considers “severe”, especially for my age (45)
She is recommending I begin Forteo/Tymlos, Prolia or Reclast in that order (she feels oral meds are second to injection/infusion due to absorption).
I’m concerned about cancer risk (although the doc says there is no concern for humans) among other things.
I’m wondering if anyone has experience with… read more
