What could cause weird behavior during breast cancer?
Patient: My 50yr old daughter has breast cancer brain mestasteses. she is now telling other family members of hatred of me and how bad a mother I was. Family is horrified by the things she is saying to them. Is this as a result of the pressure and is it quite a normal side effect? Doctor: DearWe understand your concernsI went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. The description gave by you may not be enough for a proper diagnosis. But it is always possible when people become stressed and engrossed in negative thoughts and are hapless, they find peace of mind in blaming others, especially the near ones. They blame others for bringing them such a hapless episode. This is one sort of minds defense mechanism. Slowly her attitude towards her illness will change.
