Hi viking1 I had similar to you but 4 rounds AC & 4 Docetaxol with the hercepton starting with the dox and continuing after. Did not have eye twitching but had the very dry eyes / throat / skin etc Developed a really shit rash at end of hercepton. Had pretty crappy all ovr pain with the docs / hercepton, and a milder version continued all the way through hercepton - the leg pain at that stage was the worst - and as you said when you first went to bed is when it happened, for me it stopped when I warmed up so I went to great lengths to keep warm - and as I was sick of taking painkillers I did manage it with a heat pack / and the heater on at night. My onc said it wasn't the nercepton but the after effects of docetaxol - I disagree - It didn't stop till well after hercepton finished (I'm sorry can't remember how long). Once it was under control I realized I also had shoulder/ arm pain as well, but the legs overrid that pain for a while. My arms / shoulders still give me a bit of crap.
