Bone pain backache

Hi Shazam… YES !! The pain from filgrastim was horrific. I felt as if it was a strong pulsating pulse in lower back to around abdomen, shooting up to my chest. All due to the injection. I was told it’s the bigger bones in the body you can get pain as bone marrow making more blood cells. It lasted about 3 days each time I started the injection. I had to take 30/500 cocodamol and brufen which really helped. Also an antihistamine also helped. Hope you get it sorted x

Sorry, meant Shaz 

Hi Hmfm

thankyou so much for your response 

The pain was much less the 1st 3days as I ve been taking  loratidine an hour before the injection… I thought I cracked the code but obviously not️ I ve had some oromorph and taking regular paracetamol and codeine … it feels slightly better than earlier… I hope all settles down in the next 24-48hrs … this journey is very trying but I am looking ahead and trusting God for o the end game -healing and restoration 

Thankyou everyone and gnite xx

Yes I struggled too, I started having 5 injections rather than 7 and that helped, it is really painful x

Hi Shaz-t - I sympathise with you - I really struggled with the pain from those injections as well! . I used to get pain in my joints even shoulder blades and spasms in my legs. My legs almost gave way a few times. It was also worse some cycles than others - I don’t know why but pain eased  as soon as I stopped taking them thank goodness. I had co-codomal for pain relief which helped but they made me drowsy. Hope the Oramorph helps. You are being no wimp!
