Can I have salad during chemo?
Hi Ladies,
My breast cancer was diagnosed late July, bilateral mastectomy early Aug. and I am at age 52. My bc is triple negative, lymph node is not involved so only chemo is suggested after surgery. I have done 4 cycles of AC and 4/12 of Paclitaxel so far, I am given Pyridoxine/Vitamin B6 since I have started Paclitaxel so I would assume this helps to slow down the development of Neuropathy.
I recall that I read from one of the diet booklets suggested for chemo patients and it says everything has to be cooked, with summer here I am craving to have salad so much instead of cooked veges.
Can any lady share any experience please?
