Yes, when my chemo induced neuropathy first set in i had tingling in my face cheek bones, eye twitching, numb lips (i would drool), tingling in my chest, even numb loss-of-sensation urethra which would make me slightly wet my pants.
This was two days after my very first chemo infusion of Taxol and Carboplatin. My oncologists had never seen such a strong immediate PN reaction.
It seems there is lots of nerve endings in your "openings" such as lips & urethra.
I still have PN in feet and hands but the rest of the areas went away.

I am so happy I read your post confirms my thoughts that the numbness in my cheeks and lips is PN. It does seem to come and go. The last time left for a couple months now back again.
