Hi Folks, I had a year of Casltleman's Disease before being diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymph. I had several blood transfusions, surgeries, and five months of Chemo. Following Chemo. and getting off months of Predisone... I now find that I have constant joint pain and Edema. It is the joint pain I want to focus on here. My Oncologist has suggested a Stimulation ACT Test and a referral to an Endocrinologist, My Lymph.Drainage Massage Therapit has suggested Physical Therapy, My Chriopracter has suggested a doctor for Arthritis (I don't think this is the problem). What would all of you who have survived Cancer and Chemo. Suggest? I appreciate your feedback. Blessings, Sarah T.
