For Osteoporosis "Wonderful!! If you want to say farewell to your already healthy and happy life for months, even for years, take this rubbish, even one dose! You will get paralyzed and achy for so long! DO NOT try this junk, or you will wish for death rather than taking the side effects! Beware! You will experience all the listed side effects! Long-lasting and disastrous! Make your choice!"

For Hypercalcemia of Malignancy "Went the day before Thanksgiving for my regular shots for my neuroendocrine tumors (NETs)/carcinoid syndrome with mets to liver. Nurse said a 'calcium drip' had been ordered. I figured it was a type of vitamin, although the nurse said some people get mild flu symptoms. I left 40 mins later, went home to a houseful of guests. (I'm the cook for record in our family) About 10:00 that night I felt like a ton of bricks had hit me! The chills, uncontrollable shaking, and violent vomiting began. Every bone and joint in my body ached. I'm now 4 days past treatment and I'm still just 'off.' I'm having trouble searching for words, forgetful, & inexplicably depressed. (sobbing for no reason?) I, too, like the previous post, am furious with my doctor. NEVER AGAIN."

For Osteolytic Bone Metastases of Solid Tumors "I had Zometa for the first time 5 days ago. Had experienced chills on the 2nd night, weakness, and body aches all over. Then on the 5th night, had chills again, weakness, and body aches. Tylenol alternate with Advil helped, but I will never have this medication again. I have no problem with chemo, only this medication. (I have mild osteoporosis and breast cancer.)"
