Chemo brain -overwhelmed by my life
Hi all, Has anyone got any good tips for managing chemo /menopause brain? I seem to be suffering great boughts of forgetfulness disorganisation and logistical struggles and its causing me stress ...
Hi there
I am 63 and semi retired with my own business - although I have a laptop, IPad and iPhone I still use a paper diary on my kitchen bench.
I write down business appointments and personal appointments in different colours and I also do a daily “ to do”list.
With my drugs , I bought a Webster pack ( just like the one I got for my 88 year old mum ☹️) as I now have different drugs to take each day in the morning and the evening .
Although I didn’t have chemo ( had double mastectomy and radiotherapy and now on Letrazole) I found the whole cancer shitfest messed with my mind and I’m just not as focussed as I used to be.
