Facial tics

Was wondering if anyone suffered from eye spasms while on chemo?

  • Thanks Narelle I'm just glad they are from chemo and do go away. Fingers crossed. I know what you mean about Chemo brain. Mine never really recovered from having a baby, now this, hmm not sure how the old brain will go in old age. Haha. Have a great Chrissy & new Year

  • Yes indeed, very annoying aren't they?

    If they continue beyond when you end chemo, or a week or so after that, you should definitley see your chemo oncologist  or GP just to make sure nothing really weird is happening. My twitches did eventaully go away. The chemo brain that forgets everything takes a little longer unfortunatley!!!
