@Cathhyn Hello Cathhyn, thank you for opening this discussion. I'm sorry you're having uncomfortable side effects. I'm taking the liberty to tag a few members who may be familiar with Zometa and may be able to share their experience.

We have a fact sheet on Zometa, feel free review your treatment by commenting at the bottom of the page:

Zometa Fact Sheet

You can likewise share your opinion on it by clicking on "My Medications" under the "Give My Opinion"' tab and adding it to your treatment.

Take care,

Michael

@Cathhyn‍ @Michael_B‍ Sorry love, haven't been on in a bit as I've been dealing with my treatment. I mostly feel nauseous and extremely tired, but in talking with others I think that feeling bloated is not abnormal. Have you just started your treatment? How long do they have you on it?
