Can You Drive After Chemotherapy Treatment?
The effects of chemotherapy can be very different for every patient. Some may feel very normal after treatment, while others find it challenging to function as they typically would. Your body may unexpectedly fluctuate in its ability to tolerate therapy after a period of high or low tolerance. This unpredictability can make driving after chemotherapy dangerous. Here is a guide to how chemotherapy can impact your ability to provide your own transportation.
What Are the Possible Risks?
Potential side effects of chemo are vision impairment, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, and slowed motor skills. Anything that can impede your judgment or ability to focus can threaten the safety of others on the road as well as your own. Car accidents can happen under the best of circumstances.
Talk to your oncologist about the type and level of chemotherapy you will undergo to get a better idea of how you might be feeling afterward. If you or your doctor have any concerns about how your body may respond, it's best to rely on a trusted contingency plan for transportation.
What Are the Benefits of Scheduled Transportation?
If you have any doubt about your ability to drive after chemotherapy, have a reliable backup plan in place. If you don't have a friend or family member available to drive you, some hospitals can direct you to valuable resources, like volunteer drivers or local transportation services.
Booking a transportation service allows you the independence of getting to and from an appointment without having to worry about how you'll feel driving. A scheduled car service allows you to keep your focus and energy on your own healing while a driver gets you home safely.
