To Prolia by JDL
Lyrics © 2021 Joan D Levin
Tune: Thanks for the Memories
Thanks for the constant pain,
With fractures of the spine,
And eyes that could go blind,
And dentists scared to treat toothache,
Because my jaw could break,
I thank you, so much!
And thanks for the itchy skin,
That covers me with bumps,
Just more of Prolia’s lumps,
I only hope more bones won’t break,
And leave me with a hump,
I thank you, so much!
Like a fool I allowed this disaster
And got those shots under my skin,
Now problems come faster and faster,
Being lame is a grind,
And I’m scared to be blind —
It seems there’s no safe way off,
The truth to you I’ll tell,
The prospects don’t look well,
Prolia has sent me on a one way trip to Hell —
So thank you? Not much!

As to the eye condition, I have gotten conflicting opinions. One of the retinal specialists who treats the macular degeneration in my eyes said I had this condition because I am on Prolia.
But the doctor who administers the Prolia says the eye condition is because I have osteoporosis. Two specialists with two different opinions! Go figure!
(Note - since this post was written I have learned that contrary to what the eye specialist treating me told me, it was most likely NOT Prolia but the osteoporosis itself that was associated with the macular degeneration. See other posts about this.)
