complete response

Hi loki balls7b3768 it's brilliant that you had a complete response. My hips have been tight since treatment and there are a few on here who have hip issues from treatment. As for your knees I don't recall anyone mentioning that, it could be as your hips are causing you pain you could potentially be compensating with your knees which could make them ache. Quite often knee pain is a result of tight hips or ankles. Sending hugs. Xx

Hi Loki balls7b3768 , I'm also 12 months post treatment and was given the 1 year all clear on Tuesday, I also suffer pain in my back, hips and knees, the pain in my knees is worse when I walk down the stairs and my hips stop me walking more than half a mile as they get so painful as for the back pain that's something I've suffered with most of my life what I have found is if I cycle I don't get any pain at all and I recently purchased a cheap treadmill and strangely I can walk for miles on it with no pain, I can't explain this but it does allow me to get some excercise, I hope this helps.

Hello loki balls7b3768 

I am so pleased to hear your positive result after all that treatment, you must be so relieved.  Unfortunately some of us do continue to have side effects from the treatment, I am four and a half years out of treatment and have tendinopathy in both hips.  I am seeing a physiotherapist and do exercises every second day but I have been warned that it could take up to nine months to really see results and that I should always carry on doing them.

Bungle is absolutely right about knees being affected by back and hip pain, so getting advice about your hips and back may well help.

Hope you get some relief.

Big hug
