Everyone who responded covered the things that happened post surgery…it’s amazing how much I’ve forgotten over the year and half since kidney removal! I blame my memory on the strong chemo drug (Cabo) and immunotherapy IV (Nivo). As long as it keeps the cancer away, I’m good with a bit of a lapse of memory:)
Prayers are with you and all of us! Prior to surgery, I was very scared about surgery and life. I’ve had so much done since my kidney removal, any surgery/procedure doesn’t affect me and I am very spiritual knowing I’m being taken care of! Praying is amazing for me!

I have also noticed short-term memory loss on cabometryx (I have been on it 2 1/2 years). But, like you, I am willing to endure the occasional diarrhea, nausea, skin irritation, etc to have the success I am getting. I am 74 and forgetting an occasional name is not too bad for the positives received.
