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

Posted by dingus @dingus, Aug 15, 2024

Does anyone have a solution to combat Reclast side effects. I had the infusion a year and a half ago and the side effects started shortly after I had the infusion. I still have weak legs, swelling in feet, pain in bones, dizziness (serious dizziness), cold sweats, tired all the time and nervous twitching in bones. Any suggestions?

I appreciate your post. I don't know if the following link helps with anything. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10404464/#:~:text=Introduction,ray%20absorptiometry%20(DEXA)%20scan.
It could be that you could have the tests that were run on this woman. I wonder how many other Reclast calamities are called old age. I have heard that IV steroids are the most helpful.

@gently Thanks for this. I had done some research on NIH a couple of months back. They need to determine more testing to be done before they encourage or give Reclast infusions, because once it's in the body, there's no turning back. Even stopping it (meaning not getting the 2nd of what would have been 3 infusions), really doesn't make any difference. It seems to get into the body and stay in the body. I read one case where a woman had 1 Reclast infusion, then very similar reaction to mine and 12 years later, was still reacting. That's after 1 infusion.
