I have stage 3 bowel cancer. The operation to remove the tumour was successful and I am about to start chemotherapy using the Folfox regime.
The doctor has explained one possible side effect is hearing loss. I am trying to understand the size of this risk.
I am in my 70s and use hearing aids. I have recently got new hearing aids and they have improved my hearing and therefore life, considerably. I would like to prepare myself for this possible side effect but can find little information on the magnitude of the risk
