Does anyone have a solution to help manage Reclast side effects?

My primary doctor prescribed Reclast. On the way home after the infusion, I developed a bad headache and nausea. For the next 45 days, I had Covidlike symptoms and couldn't clean my house. My primary doctor and an endocrinologist both insisted that I soon would feel better. They wouldn't prescribe anything as they said drugs might cause allergies that would complicate symptoms. I contacted the FDA and filled out a questionnaire. No reply was forthcoming. I journaled my symptoms and called my doctors. They both said, "You'll soon be better. You are not dying." Now I'm afraid to try another drug that my doctors have recommended.

10 months out and I still have side effects from the Reclast and have declined any further treatment and they called me Friday and want me to go next Wednesday for a consultation! I’m still declining further infusion! This pain sucks
I understand what you are going through. I also had awful side effects from Reclast and it’s been 4 months and I still have problems. I thought I was going to die. How dare they be so dismissive of your feelings.
I truly don’t think there is anything that can be done unfortunately. I’m constantly lightheaded and have heart rate issues. It awful. I tried to file a complaint with the FDA and couldn’t find a send button
Stay strong. I know how awful it is

cheryldance, what are they recommending. I don't think you'll try the second year of Reclast , but there is information that the bone-protective effects of Reclast lasts for two years. The doctor I like to quote on Reclasts says that he almost never prescribes the second year. He ran the clinical trials for Reclast.
