Is short term memory loss normal for brain tumor patients?

Posted by lemertens @lemertens, Apr 12, 2024

Hi all. My husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor December 2023. Had surgery to remove 90 percent of tumor. He went through chemo/radiation for 6 weeks. He is currently doing chemotherapy along with wearing the Optune. Is short term memory loss normal for brain tumor patients? If so what is your experience?
Thank you.

Yes. If you go online about brain tumors, you will see this is one issue. That is why they have the patient go through Therapy sessions after surgery.
