We would want controlled studies that show benefit without reducing the therapeutic effects of chemotherapy and radiation. You should work with your oncologist to see if they have any experience with this medication, but it looks like more, good quality studies are needed to prove there is an overall benefit.
I had my 11th injection of Evenity last week. I asked the nurse if any other patients receiving Evenity complained of side effects. He said no. I find this very hard to belive. Would love to hear from those who have experienced side effects. Mine were mostly felt 12 days after the shots. Foggy brain for 2-3 days Low energy Off balance Sleep issues
I’ve been having Prolia injections twice a year for around 8 years now, with no side effects. At first I was afraid of it, reading all kinds of terrible things about the effects on the jaw bone, but nothing bad has happened. One possibly positive thing: I tend to fall rather frequently, and (knock on wood) no broken bones so far.
Most people who take it don’t experience any side effects, but higher doses may cause health issues yet to be discovered. Talk with your doctor about appropriate treatment options if you have an active UTI.

Side effects for me include Insomnia, tiredness, sleepy during the day, bad walking gait, periodic depression, 24 x 7 chronic pain and others. Never a moment awake without pain. You can get used to it, but as someone else stated, it is like always being like you've had a few mixed drinks.
@jjpoodlespress I think you will find that some of us experienced side effects and some did not. The only side effect I noticed was tenderness at the site of the injections. The tenderness disappeared within 24 hours. I have completed the 12 months of Evenity and did not notice any other side effects during that time period.
However, the side effects are now making it difficult to live a normal life. Doctors, in an effort to continue use of the drug, treat the issues as they arise which is not helpful. By joining MCC I was hoping, irrationally perhaps, to see if anyone had found a way to either mitigate these horrific ARs or even eliminate them.
Listen to your body. I had 5 Evenity injections, one month apart. The first two didn't seem to have any side effects but after the third one a whole lot of side effects came upon me. I should have stopped the injections then. FYI I have other maladies I deal with and am 88 years old.
side effects as listed in google - Blurred vision. chest pain or discomfort. confusion. dizziness, faintness, or lightheadedness when getting up suddenly from a lying or sitting position. slow or irregular heartbeat. sweating. unusual tiredness or weakness. These side effects would not be listed if lots did not have them. Why I take no drugs.
