It could be the after effects of your chemo, but the doctors don't always recognise this.

Best wishes love x G x

will let you know xx

Yes, I'd suspect chemo damage first, but be pleased that they're investigating to be sure.

I hope it turns out to be transitory.

Very best wishes,

Isadora

Just sending you a big hug because you're worried about this. It's good your team are taking action to get to the root cause of this. Let's hope the outcomes are what you hope to hear.

My first instinct is nerve damage due to chemo. Sandra gets pins and needles in her legs and pain in her lower back which is tender to the touch until it eases which we think is nerve damage. Love Paul xx

thank you so much for your replies will keep you updated, its so worrying :( x

So sorry, that sounds both miserable and worrying, but I am sure they will get to the bottom of it - no light to shed, unfortunately, but really hope you feel better very soon and can settle back into your treatment
