Feeling yuk since finishing chemo in July. Does it improve?

I finished chemo in July 2019  and am now suffering really badly with bone aches. Hands, ankles, knees  back  elbows. It is worse if I have been sitting g for a while. I seem to catch anything g that is going  never used to get colds etc. Now I have had about 3 bouts. I have been on contact with chicken pox, and I feel really yul today, sinuses hirti g, started coughing again, only had a couple of weeks with no cough. Does this ever get better. I am taking Glucosamine and chondroitin to see if that help. Any suggestions, would be very much appreciated. Tiredness is a huge issue as well.
