(holds up his hand) Yeah, I've definitely noticed it also; in fact, not only the cisplatin but radiation causes it also. Note my sig, most recently I got 3 more weeks of external beam goodies, including a much milder return of the "hiccups if you look cross-eyed at me."
But we all react differently to stimulii. Some slip through the gate unnoticed, some pay the full price.
