Reclast aftermath pain
Hello!
Just had my reclast infusion on the 26th of June and it went bad, a story for another time but currently I'm experiencing a LOT of leg pain and lower back pain. My endocrinologist said it's not the Reclast, my primary doesn't know what to do so they just gave me pain medication and sent me to physical therapy.
Currently wondering if anyone had any success from PT or is this just a leg pain I'm going to be dealing with for the next 18 months? Any advise/supplements/stretches would be appreciated. Not to be rude but please don't tell me how Reclast is poison and how I should have never taken it, that ship has sailed and I'm just looking for positive advise.

@gently that's actually a great idea. I'll ask my primary and see what he says. No immune system issues at the moment so I hope it can help. I am 2 weeks out and I ended up getting a wheel chair because my legs feel like they are going to snap. The oxy doesn't help so I'm happy to give something else a try.

1 Reaction@michaellavacot I just had my calcium taken (not the fasting one) and it came back normal, my vitamin D came back super low that I was given 50k units for the next 4 weeks. I dint think of this at all being the culprit, since the infusion I have no appetite, I actually lost 10 pounds because I just can't stomach food. I'll bring this up next week and see if that helps. I'm just really tired of all the blood draws my arms have still not recovered from all the IVs and blood draws the last few days.
@kay15, there is a very nice nausea medication ODT (orally disintegrating tablet) ondansetron for that nausea. You don't have to take it until you feel the nausea because it works quickly. I hope your primary writes for the dose pack and the ondansetron and that they help.
@leslie2121 Do not take NSAIDS, take Tylenol and an antihistamine...Claritin or Zyrtec or generic equivalents. NSAIDS are not recommended because both NSAIDS and Reclast can cause stress on the kidneys. Good luck to you!
