loll, sometimes the infusion centers are happy to cater to patient requests. I've heard of people being denied the dilution because the center didn't have the IV fluid available. There was a shortage of IV fluid a couple of years back.
It's nice if the doctor writes the order with the extra fluid have to return. Best luck with the infusion. Reclast can cause hypocalcemia, but your doctor is probably watching your levels. Will you have bone markers,

@gently Thank you, bone markers have not been mentioned, nor hypocalcemia. I’m in the process of trying to get an appointment with my primary care doctor to consult about all of this before going ahead with the infusion.
Here in Minnesota it’s difficult to get appointments. My next question for the Doc's team is who can help me with this if she doesn’t have appointment times available. She sees patients and is the clinic medical director.
