Vickie, I left out the joint aches. It is just now getting better but as treatment went on my legs hurt after sitting for a while and trying to walk. I never felt lightheaded or too weak to walk myself to the restroom. The nurses in the chemo room told me many times to be very slow about getting out of bed. Sit at the foot of your bed and make sure you're not dizzy. I would wait a second but never felt woozy.

Love,
Dana
