Just completed radiation treatment/5days. Was also identified as having osteoporosis. Sigh. Will be starting the 5 year cancer pill and twice a year intravenous osteoporosis treatment. Curious if others have had similar treatment and what side effects. Thank you.

Starting dual treatments can feel overwhelming, but this community has many members who've navigated similar paths with hormone therapy and bone health medications. Side effects vary widely from person to person, so hearing from others who've been through this combination treatment could provide valuable insights and reassurance as you begin this next phase of your care.

I am on anastrazole for 20 years and kisqali for 3 years. I gave osteopenia(sp?) as a result of chemo. I am doing zometa injections every 3 months for 2 years. I have had 2 so far. Flu symptoms the day after for both.
