chemo and body aches
Just a general question- I finished my chemo two weeks ago- 4 DD A/C and 12 weekly Taxols. I ache everywhere. About how long does it take for most of that to settle down? I know some people experience aches for a while, but I was just trying to get an idea. My mind is running away with me at times and I'm trying to keep things in perpective.
Thank you,
Kelly
