"methotrexate exposure has also been associated with persistent cognitive deficits among survivors, including impairments of memory, attention, and executive functions"
My daughter recovered from Leukemia (ALL). She's healthy now, but it was a nightmare. She was in the "high risk" category until the doctors realized the chemo triggered a rare kidney disorder. Once that was treated, the chemo started to work.
I've observed some issues with her memory and cognition, but I'm happy she's alive and optimistic that she'll learn to work around the challenges.
Here's more info on the side effects to memory.
