I have had 2 back compression facture since Aug.  Dr. wants to put me on prolia for my osteoporoisi. It is an injection that lasts for 6 months has anyone had any experience with this affecting  your masto. We are also working with a drug company for gleevec.  Has any one had problems with this.  I am very confused and scared at this point. Was diagnosied in 2006 and this is my first real setback.  Thanks in advance for any help Loretta

I don't know about Prolia, but bisphosphonates are recommended for mast cell patients with bone deterioration.  Have you asked about other, shorter-acting options?  Are you seeing an osteoporosis specialist or a mast cell specialist?  If not, one of those might be the doctor to ask about Prolia.  I know it's relatively new.
