Falling apart after Chemo

edwh001

Hi all, just wanted to see if other's feel as if they are falling apart after treatment. My story, I was hardly ever sick before breast cancer but since I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis, chronic sinus disease, gerd, high blood pressure, herniated disc, bulging disc, ddd, classic migraines, rotater cuff tear, enlarged uterus,carpel tunnel, bursitis, depression, panic attacks, plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, leg cramps with muscle tear and other odd and end junk. The last 5 years I feel like i've aged 20 years. I limp now, don't walk, standing straight is a pain, no laying flat on back or stomach, whew glad to get that off my chest. What I want to know has anyone else had any problems they never had before after chem is done?

Thanks

Emmy
