I had my last chemo treatment - R Chop on 5/1/09 . My arms, legs , and hands frequently cramp up . It feels like my veins are hardening. Has anyone experienced this feeling, and if so, what worked for you ? Thanks Rolling Eyes

Hi dhb

yes I got cramps. From what I have read of others stories it is very common. I could not even wiggle my toes without getting severe cramps it was very unpleasant. Fortunately this did not last long and now I dont have any problems at all. I'm sure this will be the same for you.

Good luck
