Hendersonville, TN

I want to get a massage for body aches but read somewhere if you have cancer, they tell you not to get massages. Has anyone read or heard of this. I am in stage 4 terminal, I do not qualify for any treatment other than Revlimid, dexamethasone, acyclovir, darzalex, Aranesp for my anemia due to all my other medical conditions. No radiation. no cell therapy, etc.I have holes in my spine, my neack and a hole in my skull.

I have had acupuncture for many different injuries and have had very good results. Some acupuncturists can be a little rough, but I have had most relief from pinpointed needles and suction cups. Hope you feel better and get some relief.

My mother is terminal and what makes her feel the best is massages. Back and feet massages. She gets at least one a day. I bought a long armed back massager. My father who is 92 can give her a massage. You may find there are points that are tender. Learn where they are so they can be avoided. Always turn machines on low only. Hugs!

I got taken off Revlimid due to consistently tanking my RBCs, WBCs, neutrophils, and platelets. Removed from Velcade also due to eye styes. Currently on Darzalex Faspro and dexamethasone reached remission with just that.
