Improvement

Less than one minute read time.

Stiopped feeling quite as tired today. Just wish I could get my taste back. Read some other blogs from people who have the same problem but with the addition of diabetes cannot do many of the things suggested because of the sugar. In the supermarket today was shocked to find howw much sugar was in plain yoghourt which my oncologist had suggested might help! Same with milk shakes, ice cream and mousses etc even fruit juices seem to be loaded! No wonder there is an obesity problem over the country.

    it is very hard to eat sometimes just due to that horrid taste ..it does improve over time but then if you have another cycle of chemo it comes right back again ..hope yours taste buds return soon

    Yep chemo does the same to me, must be harder if you have diabetes tho, have you tried pkts of dried fruits? mango,peaches,etc...... I have bought some frozen red fruits(redcurrants,raspberries, blackberies and others) not very expensive and they taste lovely, natural sugars, not sure if you can have them as I dont know alot about diabetes xx hope things get better xx

    not sure if you can have fromage frai? could mix some of the defrosted red fruits with them xx
