I’m fairly new to this site, and I must say how helpful it’s been, so thank you all.
I’m due to start chemo on Tues 21st May, I have Grade 3 with lymph node involvement. What I keep meaning to ask in the meantime since the Biopsy has anyone else suffered various aches and pains.
My lump was painful orginally to begin with, so the no pain is very much a myth… but I find that I get cold hands, pins and needles…my throat has swollen, plus chest feels tight.
I like to put this down to stress, but it does worry me…has anyone had this while waiting for treatment?
Thankyoux
It sounds like it could be stress related, or you may be coming down with something?
I think my advice would be to see your GP if you can. Maybe you should take something to take the edge of your anxiety, if he thinks that is the cause of your symptoms? Hang on in there … Once you have you first chemo under your belt life settles into a routine albeit somewhat surreal!!
