Zometa treatment

Hi Chewy123 

I'm having Zometa every 6 months. Had my first one in December.

How did you feel after the treatment? Did you get nausea and other side effects? Are you worried at all regarding side affects?

The only side effect I had was that I felt a little tired for a couple of days, but that was all. When are you due your first infusion?

That’s really helpful thanks  

I’m due anytime now after I have my teeth checked out. 

I am having it every 6 months for 3 years. Infusion 1 was given on the day I started chemo, so any side effects got lost in the mix. Infusion 2 made me a bit tired and achy for a couple of days. 4 more to go. 

Thanks for your reply.

Looks like no 2 persons are having the same treatment regime. The zometa was only offered to me at the end of all my chemo had finished. I didn’t tolerate well to all my chemo treatments so I’m a bit worried again with the zometa, the leaflet says a lot of side effects, but you are the second person who said the side effects were only tiredness and aches, should I be less worried?? 

I think it’s very much easier than chemo, you should be right as rain after a couple of days. I was slightly surprised to get any effects at all.
