A member asked:
What are some long term side effects of these chemo drugs, if you survive your cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Which chemo?: It really depends on which chemo you will be receiving. There is a wide variety. Some can leave you with numbness in your fingers and toes, others contribute to infertility, and many contribute to a higher lifetime risk of developing new skin cancer with sun exposure. Your medical oncologist should be an excellent resource for this question.
