I had breast cancer in 2002 and had radiation. In 2006 I had overian cancer and had six chemo treatments. My two remaining side effects are my legs ache all the time and I still have some chemo fog. Does anyone else still have these problems.

I did not have leg pain.  I do have tingling in feet, toes, hands and finger...tight chest...swelling in left ankle and foot.  I had double mastectomy 6/23/09, 6 months of chemo ended 5/29/09 and 30 treatments of radiation ended 9/9/09.  Did you have any of these and if so how long did it take to go away?

I think after four years almost since chemo i am getting better. I have a good friend that had the tingling and pain in her legs and feet. She is going on three years and she is much better. Sometimes it takes a long time after chemo. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
