My MD Anderson rheumatologist and local Baylor Scott & White endocrinologist both recommended Reclast. I do not have bone mets. My spine and one hip was at -2.9, I’ve been at osteopenia for probably 15 years, so I need something. Since DCIS is known to recur, even if my percentage has been lowered by radiation and tamoxifen, I was okay with taking Reclast as it hardens the bone against mets. Those percentages are statistical numbers, not 100% accurate. It just seemed to make sense to take the med.
