Stomach cramps

[rosebine]

Just started cramps in right side like period pains (definitely not that !) Had 5 cycles of carbo/calyx could it be the chemo, or growing tumour?

Or could it maybe be chemo fighting cancer?

I'm not sure what it may be. The only side effects I had from chemo were some low blood counts and some peripheral neuropathy. You may wish to contact your health provider to let them know about the problem.

I had stomach woes throughout my front-line chemo. It was a near constant gnawing pain in my stomach. I believe the chemo killed all the bugs in my gut (good and bad). Six weeks after I finished chemo, and began taking probiotics, the gnawing finally subsided. I sure hope you can get those cramps under control soon. Best wishes from Louisiana

How I feel for you. I have the same problem, each time I've had Chemo and my Oncologist said it was probably the Chemo fighting the tumours. Do hope it stops soon. It never lasted more than a few days for me. I

Keep positive, love, Solange. 😊

Could be low magnesium which causes cramps. Chemo causes low magnesium. Suggest asking for it to be added to blood test if not already.

If it continues check it out as it coukd be a variety of non important causes

Ask for a scan and get it checked out asap.

spoke to CNS and they mentioned it to oncsultant, he was not too worried.The last 3 days the pain has not recurred so perhaps it is the chemo!
