Who gets Zometa?
Can anyone clarify who would be a candidate for Zometa? Does one have to have bone metastasis to receive zometa or are some oncologists providing this to women to treat bone loss from treatments? I am seeing and reading conflicting info on this so thought I would check with the one site I seem to get most of my answers! Thanks in adance to anyone that may be able to clarify this for me.
