Hi. I don't know if this can help you. As a result from chemo, I had that issue with my face. Nothing could touch it, couldn't even wear glasses for many many months. Eventually it solved itself to occasional minimal discomfort This was five years ago. I took the first pfizer shot in February. I now non only have problems back with my face, I also have burning in my legs, at times in my arms, some tingling in my hands and different part of the body. After much anguish I decided not to take the second shot. Personally, if I had to do it again I would have tried the J & J vaccine, I understand every case is different, unfortunately I wasn't that lucky. Good luck to you whatever you decide.

Can you tell me more about your chemo induced neuropathy? Had chemo as a child and developed np in late twenties... thank you
