Hi all

Does anyone else have problems eating solid food. If I eat solid food it get blocked and I have to bring it back up.

I am only on my 3rd cycle of chemo christmas eve so it could get better ,but seems to me to be worse as time goes on and is getting me down ,no christmas dinner unless I make into a soup but even soup doesn't go down. 

  • Hi

    Sorry to hear about the difficulty you are having. Have you asked advice from the medical team who are supporting you?  I found them really good and could phone the Specialist Nurse for advice.  It may be that they can do something to help.

    It is hard enough to cope with the chemo and I found eating a struggle as I felt so sick.

    Hope you get help to relieve this.

    Take care
