Has anyone had bone problems with their jaw after taking Xgeva? If so how soon did it happen? I am only on my third treatment and have a tingling sensation in my upper left jaw. Is there an alternative drug that doesn't carry the same risks?

Told my hematologists about all the pain I’ve been having in random places and his suggestion was a steroid taper? Anyone else take a steroid for bone pain?

What side effects are anyone having that get regular Zometa IV? I had to have a break in treatment due to a botched tooth extraction/treatment. I had my IV on Monday and feel like I've been hit by a truck.

I was diagnosed with IgA Kappa multiple myeloma. The Dr. Said it wasn't the most common. I'm on RVD therapy and thank goodness I haven't had any reactions. My oncologist at Dana Farber is adding zometa to the mix. Is there anyone else with this diagnosis and what does anyone know about zometa.

I had my SCT July 14, 2022 and thanks be to God I’m in remission. I started my maintenance chemo and Zometa on November 28. I had 9 compression fractures repaired with kyphoplasty. I’m now having more back pain, especially when standing and sitting. I went to see my spine doctor yesterday. He recommended another MRI. I hope it’s not another compression fracture. I was thinking could it be a side effect of the Zometa? Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Thank you, my shipmates.
