Have heard of bone pain. What causes bone pain? Can muscles be affected by too many cancer cells?
Bone cancer isn't the same as leukemia which is a blood cancer. Your DNA went haywire developing the gene or genetic deviation. The bone morrow makes your blood not the bones. You do have significant bone & muscle pain from the TKI's or Leukemia. I'm on Scemblix for me it's had the least side affects.
Bone pain is a common symptom in leukemia, affecting about 20% of people before diagnosis. The pain occurs because abnormal white blood cells accumulate in the bone marrow, creating pressure on the nerves inside the bone tissue. This can cause soreness, aching, or sharp pain, particularly in long bones of the arms and legs Show Full Answer
There is a lot that is going on in our bones of building up and tearing down of the bones themselves (continuously) then the nerves and the production of blood and all that goes into that so yes and no to your question unfortunately and a little bit or a lot of unknown…blood cancer and blood originates in the bone, yes on one hand it would weaken your bones, but on the other the continued stresses put on our body by walking and working out forces our body to respond and strengthen our bones. Each of which produces pain that our body may send to the brain for processing but most of the time our brain tunes it out. So that is why when we have bone pain it is time to listen and talk to the doctors because our body is no longer tuning the pain out…something is wrong.
I just read an article about what causes the aging of bones. There is the release of hormones which causes the bones to weaken or cause pain. I am lucky that my parents did not have this genetic problem. There is also a problem when stress or illness can cause this release of damaging chemicals to attack the bones. I think in the near future a medication will be developed to block the bad chemicals so bones are not attacked. We have to live a healthy life to prevent damage to our bodies from bad white blood cells attacking good cells.
I think bone pain would be present from pressure from too many cells inside the. bone? Increase pressure from excessive cells could cause a signal like pain to be sensed from the bone. I am glad I have not had this pain? I run on the elliptical and this does place a big strain on the legs but the only strange thing I see is greenish bruises on my legs.
