I had my first chemo Sept
I had my first chemo Sept 16th, no pains until yesterday. Really noticed them in my low back and hips. I think this is from the Neulasta injection. I just took Ibuprofen and helped alot. Not having any pains today.

Yes its normal
And I did cry. I took Vicadin when it was at its worst. Sorry you are going through this, it gets better, I promise!

It was for me
It was normal for me. I received chemo on tuesdays (first one 2/24/09) and would call Sunday my Slam day. I took hydrocodone for the pain. I felt like I had a bad case of the flu without the fever. I felt good before my next chemo treatment three weeks later, but it did return each Sunday.

Good luck Pat. I'll be thinking about you.
