heidi, while i was on chemo i had no joint pain whatsoever. other than the chemo side effects I felt great. the steroids given during chemo must have helped with the joints as well but my eyes were an issue and i was on steroid drops for that and i constantly used refresh to keep the eyes moist. I hope all goes well for you.
