I have been experiencing a tingling like pins and needles in my arms, neck and upper back regions. Is that what neuropathy feels like? I also had some spinal lesions that are now gone. Due to that I have some compression fractures and am thinking that could be the cause. Anyone?

I have neuropathy and experience these same side effects. But you should tell your dr so that he/she can determine what's going on.

I have neuropathy, but in my left leg mostly, but only your doctor can do tests to determine the cause. I am pre-diabetic now and that can be a symptom

My onc said being + was better. I am on both Herceptin and an anti-estrogen med. So far I have not had major side effects from either. The r just means your cancer cells are hormone receptive. Lots of meds to help.
