Why Do Cancer Treatments Cause Motion Sensitivity?
Chemotherapy drugs can cause a range of side effects, including nausea and vomiting, which are also common symptoms of motion sickness. The toxic nature of these drugs affects the gastrointestinal tract and the brain's area postrema, which is responsible for inducing vomiting. Radiation therapy, especially when targeted at the brain or inner ear, can also disrupt the normal functioning of the vestibular system, leading to increased motion sensitivity.
