Questions about Zometa
Hi,
I had my first infusion of Zometa last week along with my last infusin of Herceptin. The Zometa is for osteopenia and one area of my hip that is osteoporotic.
I have had flu-like symptoms since then. I don't know if the symptoms are from the Zometa, or what? I did read on their website that flu-like symptoms can occur after the first infusion but not for later infusions.
Has anyone experienced any side effects after their Zometa infusions?
Thanks for your input!
Love,
Beth
