@lo62 I’m curious, how long has it been since you had your infusion? I did speak with an Endocrinologist pharmacist and he shared that it remains in one’s system for around 18 months. It has been 18 months for me. The pain level was a 10+; 18 months later, most days it is maybe a 2. However, once in a while the level spikes at maybe a 3. The 3 is not life threatening; more of a stressor. I just hope the day comes that the side effects are gone!

I am the one with pseudogout of the knee secondary to the Reclast. It has been unrelenting and refractory to all treatments. It has been 15 months since I had the infusion. And I have an another complication from the pseudogout called lipoma arboresens which is a benign fatty tumor growing off the synovium inside my joint. It is from the inflammation caused by the crystals. I had some degenerative disease of the joint beforehand. But things have gotten so bad from the joint effusions, inflamation and the lipoma that I have to have a total knee joint replacement. It has been a rough year.
I would like to know too when the Reclast physiology goes away.
