Feel the chemo working?

Hi~
This may sound a little crazy, but does anyone else out there think that you can/have ever felt the chemo working?
I know my Onc would say it's not likely, but I'd swear that I feel something going on in my sternal nodes (site of current recurrence)-sort of like a dull, stabbing pain/sensation- nothing like I've ever experienced before...
Just wondering - once you're diagnosed with this disease you tend to wonder about every little sensation in the body...

ps-sorry everyone - i thought i started a new thread with this post - didn't mean to interrupt this one

You could post this separately. I felt pain around the tumor site in my breast during my chemo. Of course I had surgery before chemo. But I wondered too if the chemo were attacking the site.
