A numbness and tingling that I heard best described on this board as similar to walking in wet sand. It's an annoyance, but nothing that is bad enough to start another drug. It doesn't seem to be getting any worse ( or any better) at this point, so I just look at it as another gift from chemo to deal with. Not a real detriment to my quality of life.
Good health,
Chuck
