i had chemo and radiation 5yrs ago, i just wanted to get on with my life, forget it all but my brain has never recovered, i thought i found something here, i wish i could find someone to relate to the same problem. my doctors just dont seem to blame chemo, they make me feel like im going crazy. i cant concentrate long enough on anything, memory is horrible, i feel so stupid . i know im not crazy i wasnt like this until i had chemo, has anyone out there had long term effect on the brain? my md. blames it on depression, my onocoligist says chemo brain, they dont seem to think its serious, but it is a big concern to me, it is a major life change, it effects my day to day life and sometimes i think mabe its alztimers, it would be nice to know , diagnoses, if it is chemo brain, because half the time i just think i must be going crazy, my doc told me brain cells do not come back, well if thats so chemo kills brain cells to. so chemo could deffinately be responsable for permanate brain loss right?
