Thank you Tracy...
I was drinking Movicol Religiously morning and night to avoid constupation but never dreamed I would have the opposite problem rl??
In spite of the 'burning issue' I am honestly just relieved it is not food pppisonin. I must say that the though of infevtions freaks me out (considering my allergies to antibiotics).
I am only on day 6 now so presuming that the metalic taste is yet to kick in later on. Been very lucky to have been able to overcome it with food I normally eat.
I only wish I would ease into this a bit more and stop being so terrified of getting a tummy bug as I am having massive cravings for dairy especially yoghurt and for salads but right now just so worried it could introduce some bug into the system that I am staying away.
I even nuked 2 tomatoes to have with my brekkie this morning even though I was craving them fresh...
But I must say for someone not all that into bread, toast is making an appearance on my list of cravings... Not sure why but starting to develop a taste for wholemeal spelt bread slathered with avo ??????.
Weirdly I too am noticing weight loss. Eating a lot yet in the mornings start to feel all shaky and when I weighed myself seems 2kg had dropped off during the week....
Do you mind if I ask if the tummy upset (the flaming runs and fiery gas explosions) ease up in between Chemo sessions or do they stick arround throughout? Just wondering if there is a period they are exhibiting themselves (ie set days while trying to get this out of the system) or they are now here to stay throughout.
