Reclast infusion

I had the Reclast Infusion in September 2024, within 8 hours of Infusion, I was sick in bed for 5 days. This is the worst sickness to anything I have ever had. Worse than Covid for me. The pain was severe all through my body. I could barely breathe. I lost all sense of taste, smell, appetite, energy, etc. I became very phglemmy, and the mucus was black. I also suffered from ocular swelling in the right eye, where my eye swelled so much, it was unbearable. It hurt to do anything, and unfortunately, the ocular swelling lasted for about a week. I learned that my symptoms were probably along the line of an allergic reaction as stated by several doctors, and unfortunately, this is a definite no for me again, so I do not know what I will do for my bones; ie hypercalcemia, severe osteoporosis, and bone issues. I am concerned because this was an option that was hopefully going to work, but by the effects, that is a no for me. I still feel issues with the infusion to current. My advice, do your homework regarding everything, and listen to your body.

@closetmonster93 I got really sick too with my first infusion but was told it was an acute phase reaction suffered to varying degrees by 40% of people who do Reclast. I recovered after a couple of weeks (fever for 5 -7 days) and didn't have any reaction at all to my second infusion.

It would be important to distinguish between the acute phase reaction and an allergy since allergy might mean avoiding Reclast but the acute phase reaction would be unlikely to recur.
