Members responding to the question about joint and bone pain while on Avastin overwhelmingly confirmed that this is a real and shared experience, even when some oncologists dismissed it as a side effect. Several members shared strategies that brought relief, including daily Claritin, Tylenol, using a humidifier, staying active through pickleball or Pilates, and medication adjustments like increased Duloxetine. A recurring theme was the importance of pushing through with self-care, seeking physical therapy, and leaning on mental health support to cope with the ongoing challenges of treatment.
