Leg pain from chemo?
I've had leg pains a few times during my chemo but it comes and goes quite quickly. It feels like the bones in my calves is what hurts, not the muscles. It'll be there and just as suddenly be gone.
This time is different. I can barely walk and the pain is so bad it's making me feel faint. And it's been continuous for the last two days. This morning it's climbing into my thighs. Has anyone else had this? Do you know what it could be? Painkillers barely touch it.
Thanks for any insight.

I hope you've called your oncologist? When was your last pet scan?
I've never had a pet scan. I see my oncologist this coming Friday. I see my surgeon on Thursday, I trust him more than my onc. When I lie down it's not so bad or is completely gone but when I stand or walk the pain is terrible.
It just started in the afternoon on Friday and I figured it would be like last time and just go away. I can't call anybody until tomorrow.

It's finally easing up now. I haven't had back pain Nana, just in the legs and hip joints. Now that I'm really paying attention to it I don't think it is in the bones, I think it's in the muscles.
