Brain fog

Yes, chemo can cause brain fog. It’s called CICI (chemo-induced cognitive impairment)

Possible Symptoms

Difficulty concentrating or focusing
Memory problems (forgetting things, difficulty recalling words)
Reduced processing speed
Confusion or disorientation
Trouble multitasking
Feeling mentally sluggish or "foggy"

Have had 5 (of 6) docetaxil treatments — I’ll say my brain is “foggier” than normal… mine has manifested itself in the fact that I am finding it difficult to locate words as easily as usual. (My wife probably approves — since I remain a little more silent now instead of appearing “slow” — ha ha).

When you can’t remember the word, remember the concept and get that out and that usually gets the word equivalent. I do it frequently After being on ADT for almost 8 years.

I went back to work and my job involves driving . So far the brain fog appears minimal. Thanks for the info

Would anybody know why i am not receiving email notifications when I post a discussion. I have the box checked for email notifications.

Click on the head in the upper right corner Next to where it shows notifications and private messages.

Click on settings

Under notifications and preferences, click edit under “activity involving me” And make sure the boxes are checked.

Check the other options and make sure nothing is incorrectly checked.

Hopefully that will resolve your issue.

One time one of them became unchecked and I stopped receiving messages.
