My 30's have been rough
A full-time mother
Out of the blue
The pain was real
Difficult pain to treat
The pain was from treatment
Incredible pain from chemotherapy
Nerve pain was a 10
With a bone marrow transplant, you're given a fatal dose of chemotherapy which is exactly what it sounds like, you would not recover if you were not given somebody's bone marrow. You're given the chemotherapy in the hospital because you need to be totally protected from infection. One of the chemotherapies that they have to give after the initial chemotherapy to keep the leukemia from recurring is one that completely ulcerates your entire digestive tract from the mouth on through. You're in incredible pain at that point from the effects of the chemotherapy.
