after researching and Dr. conformation, it is gout caused by mass cell dying that give off uric acid. So the chemo is killing cells. They gave me oral (pill) steroids to help. Didn't want to prescribe the usual drug because of liver issues. So a side effect of the chemo can be gout. Wish they had said this the first time I asked so I wouldn't have been in pain for a week and wouldn't have worried something else was going on.
