Do cancer medications affect thinking?
I'm not a doctor, but from my own experience I know the cancer drug that they give you before they give you whatever your particular cocktail is, makes you feel as if you are drunk. You're really fuzzy and tired, and then the other cancer medications that they give you to actually fight the cancer, that has a whole series of effects which you can have reactions to. Not everyone has a reaction to the cancer medications. Some people sail through pretty well. They can have no nausea and still continue their daily lives. I've seen many people do it.
