Because I have moderate to severe osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, osteopenia (bone thinning) in my spine, hips etc and am at high risk for injury from a fall and or fracture. I tried the Fosamax and couldn't tolerate it due to my IBS and gastric problems so they switched me to the injectable drug. Nothing you put into your body is without potential side effects. It's just deciding which is easier to live with and without a doubt the Prolia is, even with it's side effects.

It's like the military....hurry up and wait. I hate it.

Woke up feeling much better this morning thank goodness. My finger is a bit sore and stiff but nothing out of the ordinary with that. No knee pain....yet. Keeping my fingers crossed, I have a busy day ahead as the weather is clear and sunny and there is a lot to do.

Ron, I was going through keyboards too. Usually around a year and a half, the keys I used most, I'd have to press harder to get results. By the time one was 2 years old, I would need a new one. I researched mechanical keyboards, and my search led me to the Ducky keyboard. They are the best in the business. When I got mine, I had never had backlit keys on my PC, however, my laptop came with backlit keys, and I really liked the feature. Here is a demo of some of the backlighting. It does more than what most of the demo videos show. All of it is customizable, including the speed for the changes, the patterns, and the backlighting can be turned off.

. I got a Ducky Shine 5 about 5 years ago, with Cherry MX Red switches. The latest model is the Shine 7. Yes, they cost that much, but ALL mechanical keyboards are expensive. The Ducky Shine series is so worth the price. https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/sho...Y&s[match]=all&s[cid]=0&s[search]=Ducky+Shine.

It has programmable macros too. Things that you repeat, like logging into BYC, you can program a macro key, so you tap it, and it automatically goes through all the login steps. In addition, the software is actually programmed into the keyboard.

Went for my third prolia shot today. My Rheumy was wandering around the Infusion Center where they do the injections and I got to talk to him about the knee pain I seem to get after the injections. Also got to talk to the nurse about my MRI and whether or not she thought the Prolia was really doing me any good. She said I had a point with my concerns but we wouldn't be able to tell until I get my second bone density test this next fall.

When I was leaving they told me that they were changing the name of the center dropping the 'infusion Express' name for one that was more medically based. When I asked why, they said because people kept calling them up wanting juice infusions for hangovers. Cracked me up.

From there, to Orschelns, then back to town to make the usual stops. Came home, put groceries away and crashed. The Prolia just hits me like a rock about 4 hours after I get it. I slept for awhile and slowly felt like I was coming back to life by dinner time. First round of joint pain hit while playing with the puppies. My middle finger of my left hand. Couldn't open it, couldn't close it couldn't touch it. Grabbed an ice bag and iced it down until it passed. I can hardly wait for the knee pain.....not!

Long day and I'm heading for bed. Night all!

People are weird!

Juice infusions? Maybe don't drink so much LOL!
