Re: Constant all over body pain (m)...

Hi Green
It's pretty 'normal' to worry about all our aches and pains and to think they mean 'mets'..... that's the name of the game for us now. Talk to your onc about how you're feeling ... some oncs will give you scans for your peace of mind.

Taxotere and Taxol can cause all over body pain and so can Herceptin. What you're describing sounds extreme but we're all different. The pain I had from Taxol and Herceptin was handled with extra strength tylenol.

Hopefully others will chime in with their opinions.
