Brief summary

The investigators are doing a research study that will teach us about the tingly pain that people develop when they get chemotherapy.

Detailed description

The investigators are asking for a blood sample, information about patients symptoms during chemotherapy, and past medical history from people who have taken or will take certain types of chemotherapy. The investigators hope to examine blood for proteins that could help us learn which patients get neurological symptoms while getting chemotherapy. The investigators' main research goal is to improve the treatment of patients getting chemotherapy to help their quality of life and/or help to increase the chance of their cancer being cured.
