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

Hi - I had Reclast over a year ago and have had pain and fatigue ever since, as well as occasional dizziness. My symptoms are being treated as fibromyalgia, as all neurological and rheumatologic tests came back negative. I’ve tried steroids and gabapentin for the pain and am now on Lyrica. Life as I knew it is over, unfortunately, as I’ve gone from being physically active and working to having to stop work and just managing pain and fatigue. I’ve done a round of TMS, which helped somewhat, and am about to try acupuncture.

I understand what you’re going. I feel like different person too. Reclast is an awful poison.

It was recently suggested to me that everyone suffering from these medications long term to report that to FDA. I hope it is okay to share this information on here!
For on-line reporting to FDA: https://www.fda.gov/safety/medwatch-fda-safety-information-and-adverse-event-reporting-program
For phone reporting: 1-800-FDA-1088.
There is a lot of information online on Reclast side effects- drugs.com, the FDA and Pfizer's own drug insert: https://labeling.pfizer.com/ShowLabeling.aspx?format=PDF&id=4676
In addition to the brief info below, Pfizer has a thorough chart with every side effect and frequency reported. Not sure why doctors don't look at this.
