Unsure - Knew I was in trouble Yeah, I knew I was in trouble when I did my virtual follow up to my latest scan. I was supposed to be seeing my oncologist's PA, but my oncologist came on instead. Just as a refresher, last June I was posting about an apparent set of false alarms. A PET done after the 1st set of scans that showed new abnormalities came back with nothing glowing brighter than a 2.8, apparent false alarm. Then after the next set that … more…

SUSAN - Vertigo, balance issues, decrease in hearing Has anyone experienced balance issues and loss of hearing post AC treatment? I've had issues with my balance since my first chemo treatment. The "wobbling" continued months after I finished treatment. When I asked oncologist, PCP, and CRS all said "give it time".

Eventually they cleared but my hearing just isn't the same. Now … more…
