I am being advised to start Reclast or zoledronic acid via infusion once a year to treat osteoporosis (left neck area) and Ostopenia ( 5 or 6 other areas based on bone density test result). I’m concerned about risks and side effects. Any comments would be helpful.

I was given Reclast twice. I followed the recommendations of my doctor to take Tylenol and increase fluids, but I had severe flu like symptoms for 4 days afterwards. Fever, fatigue, body aches that put me in bed. My doctor tried it again a year later saying the reaction should be less, but unfortunately it wasn’t. After that she would not give it again. That’s just me. I’m sure others have a more positive experience.
