Hi, I was prescribed Zolendronic acid for three years. I have an infusion every six months. Does this mean that I have six infusions in total, or seven? Thank you!
Hi Cloudier I was also confused by this and went along for no 6 thinking last one but no it was 7 I was not a happy bunny
when I asked my onco who is very good but comes across dippy the answer I got was “ yeah I know funny isn’t it “
Well I’d be thinking 6…so better get used to the idea of 7!
Just had a tidy up, and found my treatment summary. I’m down for 6 infusions - says “…six monthly for six cycles, due to complete May 2024”. I had my fourth one two weeks ago. Wonder if it is another thing that varies between Hospital Trusts and areas.
