Bisphosphonates Aclasta For Paget's Bone Disease, Fms

After taking strong oral doses of fosomax for pagetic shin bone, I developed fibromyalgia and am hesitant to have an aclasta infusion of a similar bisphosphonate to fosomax injected, which would last 2 years in my system. This treatment may possibly prevent further progress of paget's bone disease in my shin but I am hesitant to have this procedure as I think I am allergic to it and may make myself even more ill.

Hello, Susannah? How are you? Have you been officially diagnosed with fibromyalgia?

The reason I ask is because some of the side effects of these medications can be very similar to it. As reported by the FDA, people have experience joint/muscle aches, headaches, abdominal pain, dizziness, vertigo and alopecia.

What makes you think you're allergic to it?

Symptoms of an allergic reaction would include an itchy rash, swelling, hives and trouble breathing.

Many people have just found these medications to make them so miserable that they've had to stop using them.
