Hi all, i was wondering if anyone has any tips for eating after chemo? Chemo day im fine but for another week the thought of eating is the worst thing, I tend to loose 7-9lb in the first week. Im trying to sort as it leaves me feeling so ill and the sickness is over powering along with the consipation. I have chatted to the nurses but they say just eat little and often. Everything i put in my mouth tastes disgusting. I have chemo every 3 weeks Paclitaxel and Carboplain. During my last week i manage to put some back on. Any tips would greatly be appreciated. Thank you.
