Tykerb cramps?

Hi,

On another online support group listserv, a member posed that she was experiencing very bad (uterine? as though menstrual, tho she's been post-menopausal for a long while) cramps, and she's currently on Tykerb, along with an anti-hormonal I think.

I'm on Tykerb/Herceptin - no chemo for the last 2 years, no anti-hormonals for over 4 years. And I've been getting sporadic really severe leg cramps - huge spasms in my right calf or inner right thigh, that wake me up from a deep sleep, in agony.

Anyone else experiencing muscle cramps that might be related to being on Tykerb? BTW - I'm just completing my second month on the drug.

Thanks for any feedback you can offer.

(((hugs)))
