Hi Mummy6 - really sorry to learn of your diagnosis at such a young age must be a terrible, scary time for you. I wish you all the very best for a speedy recovery and hope the chemo is not too draining for you. I have no personal experience of your specific concern but I do remember that the chemo my wife had does its stuff and halts the cancer from rebuilding which is great, as you have been informed all the cancer has been removed. Being so young, and hopefully otherwise healthy, your systems will be fighting full blast along with the chemo to fight this thing. Remember to be good to yourself and rest when you need to. The pains are concerning of course, you have had a major trauma which will have its impact. Do talk to your BCN about the pains and I really hope they will give you reassurance.

All the very best
