i had one dose of reclast. My symptoms scared me. I had a headache, treated with tylenol. My joints were screaming the second day. My jaw locked. The third day my eyeballs swelled to the point I couln't close my eyes. I am due in one month for the second dose. I also am hae]ving bone density done in two days. Depending what it shows determines if I go through with reclast again.

The only problem I had was a slight fever the next day and I am not certain it was from the medication or the start of a cold I caught from my family.

after years of actonel/fossamx meds for my osteoporosis, we decided to try the reclast iv. i also have ibs and at any given time some stomach issue. however, i had the iv in nov.08 and other than the "flu like" symtoms the mentioned, and that were helped with tylenol. i have not had any other problems. i wont have another bone density test till next fall, so we really wont know how effective it may or may not be. but the inconvenience of taking the actonel/fossamx was just too much for me and after years on one or the other of these, there was NO improvement of my osteo. i am hoping the reclast shows some improvement. i marked the stars in the effectiveness boxes because i could not submit, but i have no idea how effective it may or may not be.
