Is chemotherapy painful?

Christian Cable, Dr. Ryan Osborne & Dr. Noam Z. Drazin (Cancer Experts) gives expert video advice on: What is 'chemotherapy'?; What are the basic types of chemotherapy?; How does chemotherapy work? and more...

There are some uncomfortable components to taking chemotherapy. Such as, people experience abdominal cramping, they experience vomiting, sometimes just receiving the chemotherapy itself can burn, they're using pretty toxic medications that go through your veins and sometimes that alone causes pain. And everyone has a very different reaction to chemotherapy, so, I wouldn't want to say no and I certainly wouldn't want to just make a blatant statement and say it's going to hurt, but I would definitely say there are some uncomfortable and unfortunate side effects to taking chemotherapy.
