    Does anybody else get body tingling/paresthesia with this drug - particularly in the back, arms, and legs? I'm on the last day of my current "on week" and have been getting increasing tingles all week long. There are other possibilities for this tingling (bad muscle strain about a week and a half ago, bad sleeping position, rain and osteoarthritis, and possible low electrolytes), but since it's been increasing all week, as I've taken the Xeloda, I'm wondering if there is a drug side effect/toxicity connection. It is listed as a possible side effect on published drug information lists. I'm going to see how it goes now with the off week coming up. I'm also seeing my oncologist next week for a routine follow-up and I might ask him what he thinks, but I'd like to know if any of the rest of you are familiar with this possibly being a Xeloda thing, as I pursue the possible cause. Thanks much!
