Casodex - would this make my bones hurt & legs and feet tingle and feel hot like they are burning?

Hello bowlerRW,

Welcome to the site.

Bone pain is a serious side effect and you must seek immediate medical attention. Tingling of the skin is also a severe side effect.- Flu like symptoms can also be connected, and it is also a serious side effect.

Body pain is listed as a common side effect, hot flashes can also be related to what you are feeling.-

I suggest you go to the ER.-

Generic Name: bicalutamide
