I want to know from people who are dealing with or have dealt with cancer, have you have your "skin"

hurt? Ever since I had my surgery last February, my skin has hurt ALL OVER. I was wondering is it just me or something that happens for all us?

1. I'll say no for my husband ...

although he was red from head to toe last Valentine's Day with a rash that was cleared by a topical spray ... Clobex. A variety of rashes, but not a consistent pain. Any suggestions from the doc?

2. Right now my scalp hurts

I'm pretty sure its the chemo killing off the roots of my hair. I remember it hurting during my first chemo. My hair hasn't started falling out yet, but I expect that to happen in the next two or three weeks.

I just got a Neulasta shot. I am supposed to experience bone pain in about 24 hours. I don't remember that during my first round; but I was in the low point of my chemo and just remember complete misery.

I"ll be sending good vibes your way and hope that you are feeling better soon. cmd

3. Yes

I don't know why it did and I never asked my doctor.
