I have had 29 ex and 3 day of int radiation. I also had 4 chemo treatments, since then i have severe pain in my legs and hips. Not to mention what I cannot explain other than bone pain. Bowel and bladder problems as well. It is very hard for me to get treatment because doctors do not want to admit that radiation can cause these problems. What should I do to get my physician to believe in me and my pain. Thanks Cheryl
