Can A Round Of Chemotherapy Lead To Dizziness In Lymphoma Patient?

My husband was diagnosed with lymphoma in late December & was given one round of chemo. For the past week he complains of dizziness & its getting worse daily. 3 or 4 days ago he started falling & now it's every time he tries to get up. I'm trying to get him to go to the ER & get checked out but he keeps saying tomorrow.

Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
Chemotherapy is agressive medical therapy which leads to plenty of unpleasant symptoms including dizziness,fatigue, vomiting,nausea and many other. sometimes it cant be treated but there are certain drugs which can be used as symptomatic therapy. Also,his symptoms can be caused by his main disease too.
Wish you good health. Regards
