Hi @lindawinn, and welcome to Connect. You'll notice that I moved your message to this existing discussion about zoledronic acid (brand names Reclast or Zometa). I did this so you can connect with other members who have experience with this treatment. Simply click VIEW & REPLY to scroll through past posts.

Linda, are you taking Reclast for the treatment of osteoporosis? I encourage you to read the information by Mayo Clinic starting here:
– Osteoporosis https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/osteoporosis/symptoms-causes/syc-20351968
– How to keep your bones strong https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/osteoporosis/in-depth/how-to-keep-your-bones-strong/art-20304596

Be sure to also see the related links at the end of the each article.

Like @artscaping there are many members here on Connect who are living well with osteoporosis. Have you returned to your doctor since the infusion in June to tell him/her about your side effects? There are other options. Have any been discussed?

Yes I have osteoporosis! My number dropped drastically in 1 yr from a Crohns flare then started Remicade! I have spoken to the Dr about all my symptoms Jaw,ears,teeth sensitivity, tingling in extremities and the Dr dismissed them! My ANA came back elevated so now have to see a Rheumatologist. So very frustrating! Any feed back would be greatly appreciated
