Food, drink and metal mouth food suggestions please!
I had my last docetaxel (chemo 6) last Monday (yeeha!) and noticed that unlike the first three rounds of FEC, mostly everything tastes yucky and metallic on docetaxel. Well, for me. I was wondering ...

@viking1, it took months for food to taste reasonable. I had zero appetite on chemo and I still have a poor appetite now. I finished chemo in July last year and rads in November. For me radiation made things taste gross and I lost 7kg in those 6 weeks of rads. The radiation nurses told me radiation can alter taste sometimes permanently and yet my rads oncologist said it doesn't. Go figure, maybe I was unlucky lol.
