New to this group, start treatment on 20th, lets hope all goes well then i can get rid of this cancer, found different foods to eat, love greek yoghurt with jelly suppliments and noodles are good.
The metallic taste is really annoying. One recipe my wife invented for me which is great so I don't have to eat as much is adding the protein drinks you get to a blender with some full fat milk, a banana and some peanut butter/nutella. Now instead of each drink being 400 calories they add up to atleast 550. If he is ok with the texture also adding some oats pushes the calories up further. I do this with 2 of my protein drinks in the day which takes the pressure off me eating all the time knowing those 2 drinks are half of the calories i need for the day :)
