awfultruth, So sorry to hear that your wife has Parkinson's. I will send some prayers her way. Wish I could do more. I have a good friend with Parkinson's, and it's a horrible disease. Don't need to tell you that, I'm sure.
Thanks for the advice to avoid tunnel vision. It's strange that none of the doctors who said "No. Not Reclast." even suggested that I get tested for other problems. Made me think that they knew it was the Reclast, but didn't want to say. But after reading about your wife, I've decided that the next step would be to see a neurologist, if for no other reason than to rule out other possible problems. I haven't seen a neurologist yet. They might have the answers that the endocrinologists, rheumatologists, and immunologists don't have. Here's hoping...

@dingus What a nice reply, thank you.
That is indeed interesting (and disappointing) that your docs did not make any suggestions about further testing or other doctors to try.
I did have another thought about trying to find help online. Have you tried other groups and forums? Facebook has a Reclast group and inspire.com has an osteoporosis group. I think Inspire calls it a community. I look at those sometimes and I have found ideas and info that I haven't noticed on Mayo. My "idea" to try risedronate or alendronate to follow Evenity instead of Reclast came from someone on Inspire. Good luck on finding a solution or hopefully those symptoms will just go away on their own soon.
