What Is this pain
Hi all
I know I will get an answer here if there is one. I have been on Herceptin
since November and Arimidex since November. Some aches and stiffness but it seems to be getting worse about one week after Herceptin treatment. I tried to get out of bed about three am. in the morning to
go to the bathroom and could not move until I did all kinds of stretches
and excercises to loosen up. I don't want to stop either drug and hesitate to mention it to the Dr. but it is life changing in what I am able to do and can do. Anyone experience this or have any ideas. I do take
fish oil but really do not want to take pain pills. Thanks all for your input.
