Thanks everyone for your input. The Chemo doc and Neuro doc are working together. LP showed NO cancer in the fluid! But haven't gotten full results of the test from the Neuro doc. Seeing him next week. Yes it does happen most often (or to the greatest degree) when rising from a lying down position. It is amazing what damage these treatments can cause. The recovery has been just as bad as the treatment itself. Planning on putting all aside for Christmas. Hope everyone has a pleasant holiday!!
