Hi all.
I've developed muscle spasms in my feet, I believe due to the irinotecan since this wasn't an issue with folfox. I don't see it listed as a common side effect. Am I the only one? Recommended ways to avoid or alleviate this? It's not bad enough to warrant a call to the Dr so thought I would ask here.
Thanks all.
