fosamax vs zometa

[dberg]

I have the opportunity to go from once weekly fosamax to zometa every 6 months. I'm not very compliant with the fosamax and my onc has said this is an option. Has anyone made this switch? I've read a little about the zometa and reducing the chances of bone mets, but wonder about the negative effects. I spoke to my dentist about the jaw necrosis and he said it wasn't an issue in my case. It is just such a jump and I'm feeling a little uneasy. Can anyone shed some light here?
