Janet M,
I had pain in my legs and back, they had me checked by dopplar for blood clots and then again with pins for neuropathy and bone scan.

My understanding is that if you get bone mets, you'll know. It is supposed to be very painful and constant. I could very well be wrong, this chemo and induced menopause brain of mine isn't the sharpest tool in the shed.

They had me go on Vioxx and it did a number on my equalibribium and then wanted to start me on some other pills and I was just sick of taking something all the time. I found this wonderful masseus and he gets the pain out of my legs and back. Even though they tested my cyatic nerve and said nothing was wrong with it, he said that was it and I left there feeling no pain. It had been so long that I was just thrilled not to be in pain. It still comes around every once in a while and I get it worked on and I leave pain free.

However, that is just me. Always take precautions and have it checked. I did and when they told me it wasn't cancer, I found an alternative to drugs.
I wish you the best. Take Care k
