Question Both eyes KEEP twitching?

I am sorry if I sound paranoid but...both my eyes keep twitching. I mean like ALL the time. Its driving me NUTS. I had a brain MRI about two months ago & it came back clear for NO mets...do you think I should ask for another one?

Is twitching a sign of brain mets? I pray not? What else could be causing this? I don't get to see my oncologist for another week or more. First it was JUST my right eye...now its the left doing it too. They sometimes take turns twitching...then it will be one at a time. Not a BAD twitch..but enough to annoy the heck out of me. Has anyone ever heard of this happening?

I just had my LAST full cycle chemo 10 days ago. Do you think it could be chemo related. Its really stressing me out since it never did it before.

Help.
