Bone Pain
I am new to this world and am in the early "freak out" day's of hypochondria. Every new sensation is the c invading something somewhere on me - I know this will go away in time.
My question - what does it feel like when you have spread to your bones? Is it an overall ache like I had during chemo? Kind of like coming down with the flu? Or is it a specific pain in a certain area? Or a pain only with pressure?
Sorry to be crazy - I am sure you all remember these early days.
