Hi Everyone,

New here.  Those who have or had triple negative breast cancer, have any of you received Zoledronic Acid as part of your treatment plan?  I have been offered this and just wanted to find out people's experiences of side effects, etc.  Also, I do suffer from a heart condition whereby my heart muscle is stiff and only pumps at 57% although I have been informed that any heart risks are minimal?

Any information, would be a great help, thank you, thank you.

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I had zoledronic acid infusions every 6 months for 3 years after my treatment for TNBC had finished. I had no side effects at all.

    As the online community is divided into different support groups, I'm going to recommend that you join the triple negative breast cancer group as you'll then connect directly with others who have the same type of cancer as you. 

    To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.

    It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
