For Osteoporosis "My husband was administered Aclasta on 18 Feb 2019. He started feeling feverish, vomiting, shivering, and severe weakness the next day. He could not even walk. After nine days, he is still feeling very weak and not able to do any work. He was healthy before the infusion. We don't know what to do. We are helpless. Seeing my husband's condition, would not recommend Aclasta to anybody. Can someone help?"

For Osteoporosis "Received 1st dose on Monday at 9:30 a.m. Felt okay, a bit tired in the afternoon. However, at around 9:00 p.m., pains in my sternum started. I took Panadol as advised, went to bed. By midnight, I was shivering and shaking and ached all over, then intense pain set in, in my sternum and left breast and arm. I could hardly breathe and seated, coughing. Temperature rose to 40 and severe sweats. More Panadol, which did nothing. Pain worsened and could hardly walk. In the morning, I phoned the lady who administered Aclasta, who said it was all normal and could subside in a day or two. Phoned my doctor, who sent me straight to the hospital, where I spent the next 12 hours on pain relief, a drip, and tests for suspected blood clots, thankfully none. I was kept until my temperature dropped and my blood pressure (190/98) returned to its usual 130/75. Day 3, sternum pain has lessened to bearable, right arm still very painful, as is my back. Very tired and nauseous. I wish I had read these reviews."

For Osteoporosis "I had this infusion four days ago with quite some trepidation discovering I had severe gum disease beforehand (this is not a good pairing). Anyhow, I had read that slowing the pace of the infusion could help reduce any side effects and also being well hydrated. Did both. I just asked the practitioner to slow it down. Anyhow, I was fine about 10 pm that night when I had the very worst chills. Nothing could warm me or make it go away. My joints also ached: wrists and lower back the most. This lasted only about 24 hours. Unpleasant but short-lived. Next year, I will be ready and have nothing planned for the following day or two. Boy, did my back hurt. But it's gone. No ongoing symptoms. I am 64, not that fit, but osteoporosis following anastrazole for breast cancer."
