Has anyone else on Reclast developed hyperparathyroidism?

Adding to the conversation. I was diagnosed with hyper parathyroid before receiving my first infusion of Reclast. My endochronologist monitors it closely and i usually have an ultrasound yearly. There has been no significant change, but what i have found out is hyper parathyroidism can lead to brittle bones.

Check with your endocrinologist, but my understanding is that hyperthyroidism only leads to bone loss if your calcium is not in the normal range. The hyperparathyroidism that I developed after a year on Reclast was called “secondary normocalcemic” hyperthyroidism, which means that my calcium levels were normal.
