Temp was still a little elevated last night but this morning I feel fine (except I have lupus and was in the sun briefly yesterday!). Reclast reaction was 4 days, exactly as expected: only 3 days of strong effects.

I will definitely have another dose of Reclast. Three months from now another 1mg (20%) dose with a lot of IV hydration and very slow infusion (one hour for 1 mg), Three months after that I will try 2 or 3 mg, depending on how I do with the 1 mg. I appreciate my doctor's careful protocol.

He did not prescribe at all during my cancer treatment, which may have been a mistake in hindsight but at the time it was thought to increase my episodic afib. Doctors have to weigh a lot of health issues and sensitivities when prescribing for us!

Windy. Good to hear you are feeling better after the Reclast. Would you be so kind as to explain what the 'rebound' looks like when the medication you were taking was a bone-builder (Evenity) rather than an anti-resorptive like Prolia?

Is it the same sort of 'rebound' associated with Prolia, which I understand is a surge of osteoclastic cell activity that overwhelms the efforts of osteoblasts? Or is there something about the term 'rebound' that I do not understand?
