Zometa Low Grade Fever, Emergancy Room, Leg Cramps, Horendous, Foli

It only got worse. by 9:oo pm. he was in the emergancy room of the hospital with sever leg pain,his whole body was shaking, not only that, but he didn't know where or who he was. He was having hallucinations. They quickly attached him to saline to flush out his body and gave him a foli so he can urinate. The next day (yesterday) I went to see him. He was lying there unable to communicate. All he did was sleep. He had no idea what was going on. He also had a low grade fever. It was absolutly horendous. I felt like I was looking at a completely different man.
Today He is much better the zometa seems to be flushing out of his system. He was able to eat breakfast and speak to us. He kept asking what happend to him.

All the side effects he experienced are rare, but they do exist. I know first hand. Don't let the doctors tell you different
