Sue,

Besides the one-time intravenous Ativan I also did find some relief taking

Ativan orally. I don't know why this works because Ativan is used as a

tranquilizer, but I got it from my onc. It did help though I had to take it

regularly. I didn't worry about addiction and I don't think that drug is

addictive whereas some of the painkillers are. You might want to ask your onc

about it. Worth investigating.

Be well,

Bone pain disappeared but yes I also could not get rid of the pain - went by

itself

Barb - you are correct - mine was also on my left side excluding my right foot

, I have only had Ativan 3 times, and was a walking zombie each time. the

first time they put it in my IV because I was nauseous during the infusion of

XL228. The next time I asked the nurse which should I take, Compazine or Ativan

and she said take both, a lotof people to. I slept 19 hours !!! This week I

took one Ativan, and it is only 1 mg, I was sluggish for 24 hours. How did you

ever take it every day? I'm thinking, I'd rather be sick to my stomach once,

than fried for 24 hours ! Bobby
