Hs anybody had hearing issues form Chemo treatment ? as been reading up on the issues as i have poor hearing at best (deaf in one ear..other is poor) and this is a slight comcern on top of impending treatment for OC.

In regards eating mine sems to have progressed rapdily in regards in how difficult it is since I first though I simply had indigestion (about 4 months now) to finding most things difficult.!.

Thanks in advnce with any experiences on these bits!

Can’t help with the hearing but with you on the eating, like you, I went from indigestion and slight swallowing probs to taking an hour to get through breakfast yoghurt in about four months
