    Bone pain to miserable.

    I am on third taxol after 4 ac's. By any chance are you taking neulasta after chemos? I understand that's where the bone pain comes from.  I didnt have it with ac but I think it's due to drug is more aggressive at killing white cells so quick that when neulasta does its job of creating white cells., old and new are are not squeezed inside bones.  I'm just guessing.  With to, I've had most excruciating pain ever.  5 days first couple times and 3 days last time.  Oncologist said to take Claritin before chemo and for some reason it works to improve the pain although they don't know why it does.  I also got Percocet but refuse to take it. Rather, I went without sleep due to pain for several day.  Walking really helps. 

     

    old thread

    This thread is 2 years old, and the writer is probably not even on the forums any more. I found the Claritin helped the bone pain too from Neulasta.
