Long term chemo effects?

I am three years out from treatment. I have a lot of the GI problems many of us describe. I just deal with those and thanks to this forum I know I’m not alone. But I have another weird thing that occurs periodically. I get super achy mostly in pelvis and legs- joint pain. I almost feel like I’m running a fever but I’m not. I get tender in my abdomen. Lasts 3-4 days and then goes away. Does this sound familiar to anyone else? I would blame it on a virus but these episodes have only started after chemo. Thanks in advance for any replies.

    Hmmmmmm.  I don't know what to make of this.  Have you spoken to your doctors?  The abdominal tenderness and feeling of running a fever would be something to have checked out.  I often have achy legs and pelvis, which I blame on the radiation treatment.  I hope you can get some answers and that nothing is wrong.  Please keep us posted.
