Hi Cecile,
You are certainly not alone in your symptoms, and you're not crazy; you just have a side effect that you need to learn to manage and there's nothing to be ashamed about that.
Many large hospitals and cancer centers have specialists who test brain function, including the symptoms of chemo brain. Testing can help specialists find the extent of your symptoms and then suggest the best mental exercises for you. You may want to ask for a referral to one of these specialists who can help you learn the scope of your problem and work with you on ways to manage your memory or thinking problems. Thank you for reading and posting. Best wishes.
