Hi @reevesk and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I'm bringing fellow members @bocajoes @spooz2 @bradmm @1nan and @gingerw into this discussion.

Reevesk, what type of cancer were you treating? Has the back pain been there since you had the bone marrow biopsy in November or more recently?

Great any info that will help would be great

Hodgkin lymphoma had the symptoms the whole time thought it was because of the chemo

@reevesk Welcome to Mayo Connect. Bone marrow biopsies are no picnic, for sure! I had one October 2018, and another October 2019, by two different doctors, one in each hip. I would check with your oncologist and let them know of the pain. Sometimes the lymph nodes of the lower back are swollen and affect nerves in the spine. Your medical team will hopefully be able to give you some answers.

Will you let us know what they say? @colleenyoung and I and others, would like to know!
