I have just finished twelve sessions of radiotherapy for a non Hodgkin Lymphoma at the top of my left lung, just over a week ago
I am aching at the top of my arms and the base of my neck which not even strong painkillers will shift
Are these the side effects that I should be expecting?
Thanks in advance
Hi again Dolydd let’s look for other friends list out there to pick up on your post but as I said before on your post in the NHL Group….. this is unfortunately is normal as your growth area is melted away nerves and muscles can be affected resulting in pains basically anywhere in the body as the pain passes through the nerves system.
