I had Taxotere and have just a bit of tingling in my hands. I have also had some charley horses in my right foot when I lay down to sleep. It's not bad and I've had been taking l-gutamine but had stop when I started radiation as my Rad Dr didn't want me to take it while I was doing radiation. The l-glutamine does seem to help with the problems as mine got much better while taking it. So far the problem isn't bad and doesn't seem to be getting any worst. I finished chemo on 7/24 and work with my hands quite a bit. I also do crocheting and I haven't been bothered by any real problems lately.
