Recast infusion

Posted by annar @annar, Dec 23, 2024

I received a Reclast infusion, believing it would produce the least side effects of all the osteoporosis meds out there
All I can say is beware! It drained my potassium which led to my fainting and I have been in the ER three times in the 11 days since I had this medication. My acid reflux is out of control and my tastebuds are ruined. So eating is almost impossible. I lost weight of which I cannot afford since I was only 110 pounds to begin with. I’m so weak I’ve been unable to work.
I resisted treating my osteoporosis with any of the horrible side effects they all have. But what frightened into choosing something. I am so upset at myself for not listening to my gut and just going with diet and exercise. Doctors convince you that will die from breaking a bone. Well I feel Ike I am going to die from this treatment. I’m only 64 and feel 104 at the moment. Does anyone have any ideas on how to help get this poison out of my body faster?
I’m so mad at myself

I do not have Covid. I also got diagnosed with acute lower colon colitis during this whole thing. Which I did not have. They tell you it’s better to take shots or an infusion if you have GI issues. Well these medications also made my Gerd 10 times worse. To be fair I am very sensitive to any kind of medication, but this absurd. My mom lived to be 95 and broke her arm at 95 and the only reason she passed was that they mistreated her break because they didn’t care because of her age.
Just want people to be aware. Thank you so much for your well wishes!
I was told that only 10 percent of patients experience mild flu like like symptoms for a few days.
