Re: Chemo brain

Bonnie,
I am sorry you were treated dismissively, and glad that more people are learning more about chemo brain now. Thanks in part to Idelle!

You can also read about chemo brain from the patient's perspective (along with results of new research, etc), in Beyond Chemo Brain: Recovering After Surviving. I wrote this book after 4 years of living with serious chemo brain.

After years of wandering through the maze of chemo brain, I read a book written by a brain injury patient (called Brainlash). Finally, I found somebody who know what I was going through. I'm hoping that my book, along with Idelle's and others, will help other chemo brain patients know that we DO know what you're going through, and will help lead the way to recovery.

To our brain health! - Carol
