Has Stage 4 Breast Cancer Spreading To Liver, Bones. Undergoing Chemotherapy. Having Noticeable Tremors. Reason?

my friend has stage 4 breast cancer - metastisized to liver and bones. she was diagnosed in 12/09. she continues with chemotherapy weekly and recently went for radiation tx. she recently started having tremors - very noticeable - teeth chatter, tongue shaking, both hands, difficult to do simple things. could this be related to chemo tx or is it more likely side effects of pain meds?

Hello, welcome to HCM.
The symptoms you described, sounds like side effects of the chemotherapeutic agents.
Consult with your treating doctor for clinical examination and for prescribing some multivitamine agents containing vitamin B12 and folic acid.

Regards.
