Useful to read historical info on Bisphosphonates. Just wondered how people having it currently are doing? I tried the oral ones which made reflux very painful. Having my first one at the end of Feb. Blood test first for some reason.
Thank you
Hi, I have had 5 now, blood test a few days before to check all is ok then the IV itself, which takes around 20-30 mins. I had flu like symptoms after the first one, but not side effects after all subsequent ones. Best wishes
Thank you, hearing about all the potential side effects first is a bit off putting. Hopefully all will be well. If I need a tooth out I might wait till it falls out. I have very shallow roots.
