I had my 2nd lot of chemo last Tuesday.  .But the last 24 hrs I’ve had a really bad back and pain relief isn’t working is this normal?

  • Hi and welcome to the Online Community. I'm sorry to read you're suffering back pain following your 2nd chemo treatment and pain relief isn't working. I myself haven't had chemo so I can't offer advice but I would suggest you call your CNS for reassurance. They'll be able to offer some support. I'm sure the ladies here will be along soon to answer your post and compare experiences.

    It’s always helpful to others if you write a little something (or a lot) about yourself and your journey to date. You can enter it into your profile (click on your username and select “Profile”) It’s helpful to other members with a similar diagnosis who can then hopefully answer your questions. It also means that you don't have to keep writing the same thing over and over. You can amend or update it at any time. 

    To find more information covering diagnosis and treatments there are pages covering most types of cancers which can be found on our Online Information and Support Section

    The Macmillan Support Services also offer lots of information, support, financial guidance or just someone to listen. It’s free to call 0808 808 0000. Most services are available 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week. Have a look by Clicking here to see what is available and we also have our Ask an Expert section, but do allow two to three working days for replies from our expert team.

    Sending you welcoming hugs B xx
