Robin,
I also had some muscle pain and aches during treatment. I totally agree with everyone, lots of water (I also drank Gatorade). I also ate a lot of bananas, mainly because they tasted halfway good. I was seriously anemic and supplemented with iron (only on oncologist orders). If the pain got to be too much I would take some tylenol or ibuprofen. I always felt cruddy for about 5-6 days after treatment, then I would feel almost "normal" the second week. You take care.
