I finished teatment last summer. So far all ok.

I have since a few days lower back pain, and heavy feet/calves pain in the evening. Nothing in the morning, little in the afternoon, strong after gym in the evening.

Should I call my doc or wait til June for my next appointment ?

Dont know what to do..........

    Give it a few weeks. If it is worse after the gym, maybe you are doing something to strain your lower back when you are working out. I have to watch myself if I am bending over a lot (like in the garden)

    Is it pain or aches?? If it is more achey than owey, it could just be a hangover from Chemo.

    Do I ever like that........

    Hangover from chemo. LOL

    I think its the Tamoxofin.........and the weight lifting as well.

    Have to slow down a bit.

    You may have pulled something or related to the Tamoxofin.  If it persists for two or more weeks or gets worse, call the onc.  Better safe than sorry.

    I did some weeding, yard work, and sweeping the garage this past week. I woke up the next day sooo sore! I'm still achey days later. In the past I wouldn't have thought twice about it but of course now I get worried. I've had different aches and pains but they never get bad enough to get checked. I see my oncologist in June also so I'll mention things then if they persist. I'm afraid I'm in the "ignorance is bliss" phase. I'm on Arimidex and had expander reconstruction so that can cause alot of the aches too. It really is frustrating that we have to worry isn't it?
