Does anyone in the Houston area know a doctor who can help me with these Reclast side effects? I've been to three Endocrinologists, one Immunologist and even asked my Gastroenterologist. All of them replied, "Nope. Not the Reclast!" without examining me. Didn't even offer an appointment to talk about it. Surely there is someone in this fourth largest city in the U.S. who can help me. I'm at my wits end.

@dingus I don't live in the Houston area and I don't know how you've gone about searching for doctors for osteoporosis but if you haven't already you can try Medifind (medifind.com) and it's "Find a Doctor" option. It can't tell you whether a doctor will listen to you about Reclast but it can give some indication if they are really knowledgeable about Osteoporosis. I live in the LA area and I have used Medifind for other medical issues.

If the doctor who prescribed the ReClast does not accept that ReClast is the cause of your adverse reactions, you might ask him or her what is the cause. Also please consider reporting to FDA. They might follow up on your behalf. Worth a shot anyway,
