Hi there,
I have done heaps of research now about this drug and it seems to be really good at building up the bones and protecting them from cancer cells too.Some trials have indicated that is attacks tumours too.
They are having great results with it treating bone mets from breast cancer.People with osteoarthritis get infusions once a year.
After checking it out I think I am quite fortunate that i will be getting it every month for a year.It's only a 15 min infusion but the only drag is I have to go to the chemo unit for it just when I thought I didn't have to go back there.I am having it because my bones have ostopenia and taking femara which damages your bones.
