New to the forum with a question that may seem silly but…
I have a chronic condition with functional neurological symptoms that gift to me headaches, vision problems and poor balance.
I was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in 2017 and was treated by surgical removal. The cancer returned last year and was treated with Efudex cream. Whilst using the cream my neurological symptoms got worse during the period of application but started to improved approximately 5-6 weeks later. Advice from my GP and hospital doctor was that the strength of the cream and topical application would not be the cause of the deterioration of the neurological symptoms which seemed correct to me.
In the last week I have been asked to apply Efudex again (4 months after the last application ) and once more the neurological symptoms are deteriorating.
Is it possible that Efudex is causing the deterioration? Has anyone had similar experience with the medication.
Thank you for any help.
