Yes, I frequently have pain under my arms and shoulders, and after discussing this with both my oncology pharmacist and my oncologist, they both believe it is due to my body trying to flush out the excess white blood cells from my lymph nodes. Sometimes, I have noticed that the pains are deeper, as you noticed, in my bones as well. These same kinds of pains also occur in my lower back.

I get long bone pain for about a week after neupogen shots to increase my white blood count. Tylenol and Clariton helps.

Ditto for me too! At first I thought I was imagining this these issues but the longer time goes on I think it’s related to the CLL. Good luck to you and hope you feel better soon.

I was wondering the same thing and have joint pain all over, or at least it seems that way. Neck, shoulders, wrists, back, knees and ankles. Did I leave anything out? Pain is part of the plan I guess. Going to try CBD this weekend
