@soggybones I’m on Reclast which the cancer center approves because it is known to hinder the metastasis to bone from breast cancer. I had DCIS in 2022. With cancer recurrence never 100% guaranteed, I like the protection. I was unable to tolerate oral bisphosphonate, and appreciate only needing one infusion per year.
I’m 71, was at osteoporosis, now at osteopenia - chances are my bones won’t improve more but doctors are happy with my stable numbers. If you’re younger a bone builder might be considered. I believe Reclast has pretty low side effects for most people.

@triciaot Thank you for sharing this. Did you have osteoporosis before you were diagnosed with breast cancer? Or did the cancer treatments cause your osteoporosis?
