I agree with what you have said. I would take the short-term side effects any day over the long-term side effects I still have 15 months post my one and only Reclast infusion. I had minor short-term side effects. My muscle, joint and bone pain have come and gone in all areas of my body and it is sometimes quite debilitating. I stopped Fosamax because of reflux and went to Reclast. I still had reflux on Reclast in addition to everything else. I also lost about 1/3 of my hair, which thankfully came back but now is falling out again.

@janetruth I'm very sorry to hear of the long term side effects you have had. It is unfortunately a validation of what I've been thinking. And of coure it's valuable information for those of us who trying to evaluate the drug options for osteoporosis. But that information comes too late for you and others like you. I'm not taking Reclast but the pressure to take either Reclast or Prolia is ever present so we need to know about situations like yours.
I hope you figure out a way to heal from this. Please let us know of any success you have towards healing. Best wishes
