I HAD toe, foot, leg, finger, and diaphram cramps (the worst, couldn't move when they would strike) until my onc started me on 400mg magnesium oxide twice daily, taken with my calcium supplement. It stopped all cramps cold, but if I forget a dose I can feel them starting again. I didn't have them to this degree until I started Navelbine with Herceptin, but have always had mild cramping in the extremities since Taxol years ago. I didn't realize they might be related to Herceptin, but your experiences are making me wonder.
