Long-Term Side Effects of Cancer Treatment

Cognitive Dysfunction or Chemobrain Symptoms. Chemobrain, formally known as cognitive dysfunction, is a symptom reported by many cancer patients.

Cognitive Dysfunction or Chemobrain Symptoms

Chemobrain, or difficulty in efficiently processing information, is a legitimate, diagnosable condition that may be caused by chemotherapy treatment, the cancer itself, or secondary medical conditions such as anemia. Always tell your doctor about any changes in your thinking. He or she may refer you to a neuropsychologist. Neuropsychological evaluations for chemobrain are considered medical procedures, not a mental health benefit, and as such are covered by health insurance. Symptoms of Chemobrain Difficulty concentrating on a single taskProblems with short-term memory; forgetting details of recent eventsFeeling mentally “slower” than usualConfusing dates and appointmentsMisplacing objectsFumbling for the right word or phrase These symptoms generally will fade after chemotherapy ends, but each patient is different.

Treatment. Post-chemotherapy cognitive impairment. Post-chemotherapy cognitive impairment (PCCI) (also known as chemotherapy-induced cognitive dysfunction or impairment, chemo brain, or chemo fog) describes the cognitive impairment that can result from chemotherapy treatment.

Post-chemotherapy cognitive impairment

Approximately 20–30% of people who undergo chemotherapy experience some level of post-chemotherapy cognitive impairment. The phenomenon first came to light because of the large number of breast cancer survivors who complained of changes in memory, fluency, and other cognitive abilities that impeded their ability to function as they had pre-chemotherapy.[1] Incidence[edit] PCCI affects a subset of cancer survivors,[7] though the overall epidemiology and prevalence is not well known and may depend on many factors.[8]

Paraneoplastic syndrome. The abbreviation PNS is sometimes used for paraneoplastic syndrome, although it is used more often to refer to the peripheral nervous system.

Paraneoplastic syndrome

Classification[edit] Paraneoplastic syndromes can be divided into four main categories: Endocrine, neurological, mucocutaneous and hematological paraneoplastic syndromes, as well as others that may not fit into any of the above categories: Neurological[edit] A particularly devastating form of paraneoplastic syndromes is a group of disorders classified as paraneoplastic neurological disorders (PNDs).[17] These paraneoplastic disorders affect the central or peripheral nervous system; some are degenerative,[18] though others (such as LEMS) may improve with treatment of the condition or the tumor.

Many people with cancer will be offered radiotherapy which is often claimed to be orthodox medicine´s number 1 weapon against cancer.
