Sore Areas

[27-359]

I an having weekly Taxel,and all is much as I expected,however in the last week or so I have developed a sore, aching hip and upper thigh on the right hand side of my body. It is also spreading to my thigh.

I can't tell if it's muscular or in the bones , but I also wonder if it's something to do with the lymph nodes. Hasnyone else who has had cancer in the lymph nodes advise if they have experienced similar.

Hi Jenny. I think you should call your nurse or GP and have it checked out. It could be a pinched nerve in your lower back or it could be the taxol or cancer. I hope it resolves soon! Xx
