I received my first injection of Prolia and a week later, I experienced what felt like electric shocks from the front of my left groin down to my toes. I would like to know if this is one of the side effects of Prolia.

It is possible that the symptoms you experienced, such as electric shocks from your left groin to your toes, could be a side effect of Prolia. According to the product monograph, less than 5% of patients may experience similar pain. It is recommended to discuss your symptoms with a pharmacist to rule out other possible causes and to report the effect to the company and Health Canada. This will help to better document this rare side effect and provide answers to other patients who may experience similar effects in the future.
