hey I hope this is not redundant but after my husband had his chemo treatment today he has a very shaky feeling, he said its like a chihuahua but hes not cold, infact he's sweating like crazy. I'm just curious if anyone else has felt this?

    I've had this

    I've had this.    It can be typical getting off chemo, but if it gets excessive, let your doctor know.  Just make sure that he's not surrounded with air conditioners.  He probably will feel better without it for a day or so.  Hope he feels better.

    I've had it too

    I felt it after my oxaliplatin dose was increased.  I couldn't stand, like my whole legs and feet were shaking.  I had to hold something to support me while walking.
