"I was on denosumab for 18 months due to a benign spinal tumor. The doctors stopped the drug and operated on my spine as the drug caused a thigh fracture and pain in my legs. Five years on and two operations to have metal rods inserted into my femurs, I am still in constant pain with my legs. Everyone's side effects are different, but mine are life-changing."

Denosumab "Took Xgeva for 2 years for Giant Cell Tumor of the spine. Doctor stopped it after 2 years because I was doing so well. Exactly six months later, the tumor came back. Now I'm on another round of treatments."
