radiation or screws for fracture?
The orthopedic oncologist is advising to wait and see, treat it with
Zometa
, Piqray, and light exercise, and eventually screws if it continues to aggravate me. The radiation doc wants to schedule a round of radiation to an area that was radiated 4+ years ago.

infusion Side Effects
The radiation was a walk in the park compared to the 1030-1048
Zometa
infused Wednesday morning. Holy cow ! Peed (a few dribbles) every half hour. Chills then sweats. Bone ache throughout and head felt like I’d gone out on an all night binger, which I don’t. To cap it off,it brought on insomnia.

I think she is a good person and physician, they just don't know or care about you (every time I go in there they think that I am on
Zometa
, which I have declined for now). She seemed very rushed to get to her next appointment.

Just completed 28 rounds of IMRT and have been on Lupron, Xtandi and
Zometa
for the last two months. PSA at diagnosis was 26 and first blood work after Lupron and Xtandi PSA was down to 3.6. Testosterone was down to 4. Second blood test due in two weeks.

Bone health: review about the guidelines
weight bearing exercise, biphosphonates o Denosumab, vitamin D, calcium I do all of the above, even if I have very thick bone and not yet CR, the oncologist says that
zometa
is also used to contrast the spread of bone metastasis… https://www.urotoday.com/video-lectures/practice-guidelines-prostate

Zometa
Hi all, been on
Zometa
every three month, but having concerns to how it is affecting my kidneys, since my kidneys function has been declining consistently and creatinine numbers rising as well, anyone else having same issues? Thank you in advance for sharing your experience with this drug.

Radiation PSA, Orgovyx, Bone density
Prefer not to take bone strengthening agents since bad SE with
Zometa
and MO not positive they will do that much good. I look forward to your comments.

Xofigo+Xtandi beats Xtandi alone for mCRPC
Compared to Xtandi alone, Xofigo+Xtandi: • improved radiographic progression-free survival by 31% • improved overall survival by 31% These were men who had predominantly bone metastases and all received a bone strengthening agent (
Zometa
or Xgeva). They may have received Zytiga previously.

Exercise right after Zometa infusion?
My husband (diagnosed May 2024) is on Abiraterone and Lupron and receives
Zometa
infusions monthly. What are people’s experiences with working out right after an infusion? He hasn’t done it to date but he’s scheduled for both one day this week.

Zometa question
Is
zometa
given forever? I worry about ONJ . I have been on
Zometa
over 3 years which puts my risk at 3%. Of course I do all the things like meticulous oral hygeine etc., but it is still a concern. Has anyone had the
zometa
stopped after a number of years

Excruciating jaw pain
Had a thorough dental examination and no sign of infection or necrosis (from
Zometa
). I’m taking cocodamol but it’s not enough. Any similar experiences out there and any suggestions of causes and treatment?

Tooth extraction after receiving Zometa?
Has anyone had a tooth extraction after receiving a
Zometa
infusion? My tooth extraction is scheduled for 9/18 but it’s not related to my metastatic breast cancer or any drugs I have received. It’s due to internal resorption and is being removed 8 weeks after my first
Zometa
infusion.

Ibrance and supplements
I am 69 years old and use Ibrance 100 + fulvestrant monthly and
zometa
every 3 months. I think I should be taking some nutritional supplements. I'm interested in what you use? Which form of vitamin C do you think is best? Thanks in advance on your answers.
