www.cancer.gov 13 List of side effects Below is a list of side effects that chemotherapy may cause. Not everyone gets every side effect. Which ones you have will depend on the type and dose of your chemotherapy and whether you have other health problems, such as diabetes or heart disease. Talk with your doctor or nurse about the side effects on this list. Ask which ones may affect you. Mark the ones you may get and go to the pages listed to learn more. You may have a lot of side effects, some, or none at all.
