Back & leg pain

Hi  and a warm welcome to the Online Community. I'm pleased to read that you're in remission but sorry to read your suffering issues with pain and back spasms.

I have a different type of cancer to you and haven't had chemotherapy so I'm sorry I can't answer your question. I just dropped in and noticed you've not yet had a reply to your post so I've tagged the Community Champion greg777 of this group so I'm sure he'll be along soon to answer.

Sending welcoming hugs, B x

Hi Active Lass,

Welcome to the forum, although I am really sorry to read what you are experiencing at the moment. The best advice I can give is to get in contact with your medical team and see if they have any ideas as to what the pain might be. I would be wary of reading too much into what you will find on the internet, there can be a lot of scary information out there which might not properly explain what you’re experiencing.

For what it is worth, I still get niggling discomfort where I had the collapsed vertebrae on diagnosis but it really does not bother me very much and I can still be as active as I’d like to be. I am confident you can achieve the same but it might just take a bit of time for your body to settle into an activity level it is happy with. If ever in doubt though, I would definitely talk to your medical team as they will know best about what your body should be capable of doing given your specific circumstances.

Wishing you all the best

Greg
