Reading your comments is not encouraging to me! I had a Reclast injection in July 2024 and have now been experiencing the same type of pain you describe. The pain is quite unimaginable, like someone trying to crush your bone in a vise. How do we diminish these side effects? I had a similar experience with Prolia with my right leg and two weeks after my missed injection all the side effects were gone. It doesn’t sound like Reclast leaves the body as quickly.

I wish I had an answer. It's so odd as I have had periods of relative comfort, where it just disappears but then out of the blue returns for several weeks or a month in the last case. I had little discomfort since the end of December though the leg/knee felt stiff. I got a stationary bike 2 weeks ago and used it for several days without issue then my knee flared up again. It feels hard to bend and the right leg is again quite uncomfortable. I knew I was taking a chance because I had this reaction with my right leg years ago on Fosamax which is in the same class of drugs but that was a weekly pill I was able to stop taking and return more to normal. I was due for Reclast late January and declined it, hopeful that it will leave my body soon. I have alternated Tylenol and Ibuprofen (3 days with one then 3 days with the other) but don't want to keep taking them. I wrapped the knee, iced etc but not much help. Wrapping seemed to make it more stiff. Best wishes and would like to follow your progress.

It’s been 8 months and I still have the symptoms. Nausea seems to of decreased but the pain in my shoulders and left foot are Far from gone; enjoying Retirement, Not!
