Headache 1st day. Feel weird for 3 to 4 days . I take 1 dose a week.. Face flushes dryness, and face breaks out
I drink tons of water to help. Now cramps in my leg, sometimes but I don't know if it's calcium low or potassium?

Low magnesium most likely. My doctor said in some people fosomax raises calcium in your blood levels thus depleting your magnesium. Mine got so depleted on fosomax I developed a bad arrhythmia and stopped taking it. Took months to replenish my magnesium levels. I had leg cramps first then got palpitations which got really scary. I will never take another bisphosphonate!
