Over the last 8-10 weeks I have noticed that I am a wee bit unsteady on my feet, or dizzy. I think it is a balance issue and I am wondering if it could be another after-effect of radiotherapy. In the same period I have noticed that my eyesight is deteriorating. Has anyone else encountered anything similar?
I am seeing the ENT Oncologist at the first week in April and wondering if it is worth mentioning. Your thoughts please.
It may be old age, as I am getting on now (71 in May), but I just thought to check here.
Thanks Again,
Bob

Well be careful. Did you get your thyroid function checked like Linda suggested? How's your blood pressure ?
