Hi VickieM, when I finished my chemo-radiation treatment, all my limbs were perfectly all right. However, 2 months later, my left hand and leg started feeling tingly as if there were some ants were crawling on them. I told my oncologist who tested the strength of my hand in holding things. He didn't see any problem with it and said it was a side effect of treatment. Nothing could be done to get rid of this tingly feeling. I tried acupuncture for half a year but there was no obvious improvement. Only the left limbs are affected since I received more dosage of radiation to the left tonsil and lymph nodes. I am over 3 years post treatment now and the tingly feeling is still with me but if I am occupied with work or my attention is drawn to something interesting, the tingly feeling is not there. A side effect I can quite easily cope with.
Karen.
