I’m a 56 white female in menopause from 45
My gynecologist prescribed Priolia as I had advanced Osteopenia
My first injection was in Oct 2016 Everthing seemed alright Plus my density levels stayed stable so had second injection April 2017
In May 2017 my nightmare started All of a sudden my whole body ( from the tip of my head to the soles of my feet ) was in constant PAIN swelling I walked around for 2 months not knowing what was wrong with me Finally saw a rheumatologist did a huge amount of blood work then Cortisone meds etc After no success as symptoms where not rheumatically related She diagnosed me with Fibromyalgia and prescribed Cymalta ( anti depressant ) Which I did not resort too as didn’t believe I have Fibro Subsequent side effects have been hair loss for well over a year eczema foot infections rosacea and hives Still continued with my 6 monthly Priolia injection
During the last year my pain subsides slightly( for a month ) and then flares up to the point of I’m incapable of doing anything Very miserable sleepless painful days and nights And heightened depression. I am due to have Priolia agin in Oct 2018
Went onto Priolia”s site to read hard facts that I’m sorry I had not read before !!!!!;
ALL my doctors ( Rheuma Gyni Lung Dermo and Pathologist ) NONE have come up with maybe ALL this could have been due to Priolia side effects ????
