JOINT PAIN & BODY ACHES AFTER CHEMO

[LOPSIDED]

I HAD 4 TREATMENTS OF A/C, SURGERY, 12 WKLY TAXOTERE PLUS SHOTS OF NEULASTA & NEUPIGIN AND DURING ALL OF THIS I FELT OKAY AS FAR AS BONE PAIN AND BODY ACHES. NOW THAT I'M THRU THIS AND I'M DOING RADIATION---I HURT ALL OVER. I'M SO STIFF AND MY STRENGTH IS MUCH LESS THAN 1 MONTH AGO. MY BONES FEEL FUNNY. NOW, I'M NOT HURTING TO THE POINT I NEED MEDICATION. I MIGHT TAKE A MOTRIN ONCE IN AWHILE, BUT I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW DIFFERENT MY BODY FEELS WITHIN JUST A FEW WEEKS. I'M ONLY 41 AND FEEL ABOUT 80. DO YOU THINK ITS NORMAL TO HAVE THE BODY ACHES AFTER THE CHEMO? I HAVE GAINED A LOT OF WEIGHT AND MAYBE THATS WHY MY JOINTS ARE HURTING. I KEEP TELLING MYSELF I'LL GET THIS WEIGHT OFF BUT HERE I AM A FEW MONTHS LATER AND I WEIGH MORE THAN I EVER HAVE IN MY LIFE.
