Thanks, Jeanie. I'll try the castor oil and let you know. The baths help but I work full time and a lot of the pain is going on during that time so obviously I can't take a bath til evening. I just got my 3 month bone marrow results and hit undetected, same as the prior one in March. A first for me - two undetecteds in a row. If I have to suffer bone pain to have the cancer cells gone, I'll stop complaining and take it!
Hope all is well with you. I remember that you had a nice, long vacation. Please let us know how you are doing.
