Sounds like you went very well! I was given a great little booklet that listed the common side effects of chemo and graded each of these from 0 to 4 (3 and 4 being bad enough to contact chemo nurse or oncologist). According to this booklet you only need to contact them if you have severe cramping, pain, tingling and loss of feeling. Just keep a note of any symptoms (a diary of sorts) and let them know what you are experiencing when you see them before the next chemo. A slightly odd tingling or numbness sensation is ok but still let them know next visit. If it worse than that and affecting your normal living activities then it maybe worth a phone call. Hope this helps. Deanne xx
