Re: Quick Question re Long Term Effects of Treatment
hello,
no neuropathy but I'm now 7 years out but I do have severe breathing problems in cold weather - so far the docs (GP, onc, cardiologist) all say it's the radiation. I'll see a lung doc next week and see what he says. Also the radiation also has caused a pinched or burnt nerve in my back//shoulder area. Still all this is worth it, if the cancer stay NED. The breathing problem has come on slowly and now is severe.
I do remember having lots of little problems during, and for a couple of years after treatment - pains, skin, fatigue so I think it all takes time. If it's worse in cold weather, try to stay warm, if it's the opposite, stay cool. Neuropathy is a common occurrence so hopefully someone on the site, who's had it and found a solution, will answer you.
keep bugging your doctors until you find a solution, pain is not good.
health and happiness
love sarah
