I had my first zoledronic acid infusion last week. Got the usual side effects, feeling as if I'd been run over by a bus. Has anyone also experienced agitation for a few days? It's not pleasant at all, cos it's like adding fuel to the fire of my already anxious state.

  • Why did they give you this was it due to sickness ? Was it due to high ca levels ?

  • It's a treatment which helps to protect your bones whilst on aromatase inhibitors

  • Hi  

    I had zoledronic infusions x 6 bi annual over 3yr . I would be off for about week and also had Seffect of UTI first time ever and none since finishing .

    i think we all get different SE because we’re all so different but in the end the benefits exceed the discomfort .

    The story of my treatment is on my profile if you want to read just click on my name

    take care 

    One step at a time and ...Breathe !

  • Thank you, Margaret . I read your story. X

  • Yes my wife had it to reduce calcium going into her blood.

  • Hi, I can relate, “run over by a bus” was how I felt after my first one.  I’ve had 5 more since and every one not a single side effect. Weird, but positive!  Hope it eases soon for you, best wishes
