    Hi @LMK74...do you have 'normal' taste now?  I asked the rad onc today and he said rad can give you more of a smelly taste in your mouth...glad I didn't get that!  I wish that I had weight loss as a side effect from taste loss!  I needed to lose weight before the whole drama but it didn't factor in.  Might be the antidepressants I'm on that make me hungry in the night.  I need to do some walking.  It's weird when you are hungry but next to nothing is appealing. My poor pharmacy assistant lost all her taste and saliva from throat cancer, and won't be regaining it. She says food now holds no interest...she just has to go through the motions.  She also uses a bottle of lubricating mouth wash per week.  Makes me see how others are in much worse positions and be grateful. Bloody cancer!
