Hi Lisa, I can't remember if I have welcomed you to our
forum. I know I don't have chemo brain; but I do have tamoxifen brain,
does that count? In any event glad to have you on board, warmly, your
friend, lillian
I have never heard of a reaction like that from radiation
therapy, but ask her doctor about the effects of chemotherapy. Sometimes
chemotherapy can erode the mucous membranes, including the mouth and throat. I
am not a doctor, but I have heard of this reactoin from certain types of
chemo. Check it out. LisaFix
