Certain chemotherapies, anti-hormonal treatments and the drop in oestrogen can often lead to joint pain. Are you experiencing this side effect?

If yes, what do you do to ease the pain?

I take vitamin D, chlorella & spirulina and also practise reiki which helps on many levels. I find keeping physically active is also useful to stave off joint pain, particularly yoga and pilates and lots of stretching to maintain flexibility in the joints.
