Sound sensitive

Does anyone else have sensitivity to loud noise since chemo? I start shaking when our nutri bullet or coffee bean grinder is on. And whenever we have music playing, certain music puts me right on edge whereas I used to be able to listen to anything.

  • @Blossom1961 I'm not sure what other treatments you are on but I have noticed this since being on Tamoxafen-I feel like I almost get a small adrenaline rush when it happens-Awful
  • Hi @Blossom1961, whilst I can't say I've specifically noticed it, I wouldn't be at all surprised. Chemo can have lots of long lasting effects. 

    The other possibility, of course , would be some sort of subconscious reaction to a sound that has associoations for you  :s

    Take care
