@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:

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?
