Unhappy kat in the delta

I have been off herceptin for about 6 months and My body is stiff in the morning and I ache all the time.I ache if I sit, or stand or most all the time...My Onc.was giving me Zometa every 3 months (4mg/visit)--which I just heard a talk on and 2 M.D.'s concurred was an overdose unless it had meta. to my Bones. MY reg. family MD ordered a bone scan and it came back fine. But I am still in pain -- My Onc.says all I need is the tumor marker test, which I get about every month.My rather thin ankles are retaining fluid and I have brown patches on them also.--went to my derm and He said it was my circulation and the brown patches were iron deposits..Have any of you had this happen..?? What does anyone think?? gottta go now-in PAIN>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> kat in the delta
