I've had two so far three months apart. About 2 days prior I get blood work done. They take about a half hour. I tend to feel achy and tired for about a week or so after having them done. However, I had a horrific fall on my knee and didn't fracture so it must be working.

Thanks for the info....Doctor also said be cautious with dental works after the infusion.

I had my first Zometa infusion for bone strengthening (along with my chemo treatment) due to bone metastasis. I felt like crap for 2-3 days, extreme fatigue, queasiness/loss of appetite, bone & muscle aches, headache. Much worse than chemo side effects. I’m scheduled for a second infusion in 3 weeks, and almost want to refuse it. I know the benefits likely outweigh the risks, but I’m also hesitant to do anything that further deteriorates my quality of life.
I think my oncologist said side effects may be less with second treatment. Anyone who can comment on your experience?
