After second seance I lost my sensation for food. everything I put in mouth seems like wooden sticks.
So I stay without eating for 10 days.
My questions are
1. is this common
2. what you propose
3 and most important Is there other chemotherapy variant that may be more soft
thanks
Hi Rioriopan and welcome to the community.
I am Sarah, one of the community champions(Macmillan volunteer in the community) and I noticed that your post hadn’t had any replies yet so my reply will “bump” your post so others may see it.
I notice you haven’t said which type of cancer you have, so if you can share that detail then I can direct you to the appropriate cancer specific support group, where others might be able to help.
Can I just check if you mean FOLFOX chemotherapy or some other type?
