Nerve Issues From Chemo
I completed chemo on January 18th and most of the side effects are gone by now. However, over the last 2 weeks or so my left lower eye lid has been jerking around and jumping like crazy...and this has been constant. It is driving me nuts and I really hope it clears up soon.
I assume this is nerve damage from the chemo...anyone have any experience with anything similar?
