Side Effects from Cancer Treatments
Cancer treatment side effects on the central nervous system are common and can linger long after treatment is complete.
Multiple treatment approaches (chemo, radiation, surgery), and the cancer itself causes side effects that prevent simple activities of daily living. Many of cancer treatments are ototoxic (causing damage to the vestibular system/inner ear, the main balance system in your body).
Side effects include:
- Dizziness
- Vertigo
- Balance problems
- Peripheral neuropathy (numbness in the extremities)
- Poor coordination
- Postural instability
- Inability to hold objects
- General weakness and fatigue
- Poor endurance
- Changes in taste and smell
- Nausea.
