I finished up chemo for ovarian cancer in the middle of June. I have started to lose weight (only about 5 pounds so far) and have found in the last couple of days that I am having some of the same symptoms I had with chemo. I did a Google search to see if there was a possibility of chemo being released from fat cells as you lose which led me here.
I completed chemo for NH Lymphoma in 2009. It is not 11/10 and I have purposely begun loosing weight. I have started having some of the same side effects that I experienced during chemo. Everything tastes gross, smells gross, and some anxiety. I am not sure that this is not related to stores of the drugs that are being released from somewhere.
Hi,
Weight loss is deu to the shrinkage of fat cells and no, technically chemotherapy drugs cannot be stored in fat cells and released later.
what is in the fat cells is only fat.You weight loss issues could be due to entirely different reasons and so could your forgetfulness.
You may have to go to a neurologist for athorough evaluation to root out the cause for this.
