Zometa is a more recent formulation of the older drug Pamidronate (sp?). Zometa is a much quicker infusion and workes as well or better. I get it and have for over 2 years now with my every-three-week herceptin. This is for maintenance as I am now NED, but my bone scan a year ago showed no more shadowy areas other than one on my sternum that is not a met.
I hope they have this drug where you are. it could help you at least stop any more spread.
Are you also hormone neg or pos?? If pos than a good hormone suppressor could also help.
