Hello Vika! I do hope your mother is feeling better soon. I will say that the bone pain actually decreased over time with the chemo. It was the worst in the first couple treatments. It is like your body is in shock. I took ibuprofen and or tylenol and tried epsom salt baths. My blood work overall was ok but I wound up with decreased platelets that did delay my treatment twice. I was very discouraged but apparently it is common. They can't do anything about platelets but wait. I do think with hemoglobin they may be able to address with medications. I hope you have a nurse or way to ask the doctor. I am sure it is so helpful to have you supporting your mother so closely. hope things are going okay. Eileen
