After doing gemzar, and realizing my counts were going far too low, we switched to Navalbine. There eas a 6 weeks break between the 2. Every since starting navalbine, I have felt horrible! I have terrible pains in my arms, legs, hips, & shoulders. Swelling is horrible, too. I took a lasix 2 days ago, and have lost 10# in fluids since then.

I don't think I can tolerate the Navalbine anymore, as I am sick of just lying around & not even having the energy to do the things I want to do, and the pain is just unbearable. My onc has gone from lortabs 5 mg, to 7.5, to morphine.

What would anyone else suggest?
