Hello
As anybody suffered with sporadic muscle pain during chemo and post chemo.
I have noticed this in my left leg(a bit like pulling a muscle), and the last few days it seems more constant, especially when walking and standing for long periods, this happened a bit during chemo, but i’am still getting it 3 weeks from last chemo, does anyone have or had
this?

Hi Ann
I haven’t had muscle pain, but I do ache in my legs and arms, have had 2 x fec, also got some pain in my wrists, I wondered if that was anything to do with the chemo, will ask them when I go back next week.
Hi Angels. I had the most appalling aching from the waist down when on Paclitaxol chemo - it really was terrible and at times I was writhing about on the floor in excrutiating pain, but I told them at the hospital and was prescribed pain relief for those days. It only lasted each time for about 24 hours on about the third day each time. By the fourth and final taxol I’d got used to it, but muscles still ached sometimes especially if you overdo it. Try and take it easy whilst on chemo and listen to your body. It’s going through a heck of a time and I expect your body’s trying to tell you to rest! Ask your doc if you can take a little pain relief - paracetamol or something. Hope this helps. Susie
Hi me too, on my 2nd Fec and could scream with the muscle and joint pain…
I stood at my kitchen sink washing up yesterday when my leg gave way on me! I went down like a ton of bricks…
Apparantly normal…
Sorry I can´t add any positives…
