Returning to Treatment: Starting Zometa

I have only gotten one Zometa treatment but it was recommended by people on this site to really hydrate before and after the treatment. The other recommendation was to take Claritin ( for bone pain) a few days before and after. I hydrated but did not know about the Claritin, only took it after but don’t be surprised if you have an increase in pain and are really fatigued for a few days after. I plan on doing the Claritin before and after in August for my next dose Hope this helps. Stay positive
