Zometa Infusions
Going for my first zometa infusion and would appreciate any feedback on experiences.

I have now had 3 Zometa infusions and so far so good.
I drink lots of water before I go for the infusion which seems to really help.
No adverse reactions or symptoms and will be anxious to have my next bone density test to see if they have helped my bones.

Are you taking only Zometa, or are you also getting a steroid as well? When my mom was being treated for bone density concerns, they gave her a steroid which left her feeling great for the day of treatment, but really fatigued the day afterwards.
The lesson we learned from that treatment process was to not allow her to overdo it with walking or exercising, since she would want to push herself with the extra boost of energy that the steroid gave her. That might be a concern for you as well.

Thank you so much for your input! I am still on the fence as the treatment is mainly recommended for bone density after taking Letrozol and I would need to pay out of pocket since fortunately, this year I have not hit my deductible! Is there someone who can comment that Zometa really helped improve their bone density? I have a friend who was pre-osteoporosis recommend I try Osteostrong vs infusion.
