Hi all , although I'm feeling very well 92 days post transplant I have times mostly in the morning and after exercise where my leg muscles seem stiff and sore . My bloods are all good .Has anyone else experienced this or is it just part of the recovery process ?
Any suggestions welcome
Sue
Hi Cakie
This is very normal, your body has taken a massive hit in recent months with all your treatment.
My wife had about 6 months of aches and pains following her SCT back in Aug 21. She's now fine and doing very well, I'm sure your feel much better in the coming few months.
Hi Cakie, I had my transplant last September. After 3 months I decided to do some very light weights. Was in agony after this, think it was just too much too soon. My physio advised using resistance bands, which I gave been doing and the improvement has been great.
Good luck

Totally normal, what your whole body has been through will require some time for it to recover. At day 92 I was just out of my wheelchair and walking with sticks so you are doing great …… set little goals and keep building up you muscle lose.
