I am having very tender and painful skin pain. No swelling at all. But my chest, upper arms down to my elbows, upper thigh skin is so sore to touch. Anyone had this too?

    Yes
    Hi,

    I have had this; it is so annoying. I experienced this mostly at the beginning of my treatment (A/C). Since then, it has subsided except for the neurapathy (spelling) in my hands. Make sure you talk to your doctor or nurse about it.

    Hope this helps somewhat! You are not alone!

    I have been refreshing the page for hours hoping someone would tell me what you did.
    Thank you. I am not so scared anymore. I feel like I have been beaten on my skin. Kinda like it is all bruised without the bruises. Ouch. Wow.. the fun never ends hey?
