Hey Suzieq, Thanks for the advice and the welcome.
I've been sleeping in a t-shirt for a long time. I thought that would help. But, I wake up freezing in the meddle of the night from the sweat. LOL The rash was on my arms and the oncologist gave me some cream to use and cleared up in a few weeks. The joint pain is uncomfortable but I'm getting through it right now without taking anything. Oxycodone and stuff like that does not work for me. Hang in there and keep in touch. Sherri On Fri, Apr 22, 2011 at 3:27 PM, Suzieq <[email protected]> wrote: > Welcome to our group, Sherri.
