Hi @wendy_h67, so very sorry to hear about your hands and feet, I am hoping that mine will recover in time, nearly 3 weeks now and no real improvement,BUT I had tea tonight and for the first time in a very long long time I could actually taste food, it was heaven,pan fried atlantic salmon, our own tomatoes and cucumber and various salads and chips, I never thought food could tast so good, however it wont last long back to the oncologist on Thursday then I start .the new chemo on Friday, such is life with cancer, still I will take a few days of enjoying my food.
It will be interesting to see if a reduction of 20% will help you, I certainly hope it will be of benefit, something I have realized over the last three weeks, the bloody treatment is worse than the disease, but what do you do, just keep chugging along,
is your chemo an infusion and how often do you have to have it?I know this will be my last opportunity to be on tablets and that iv will be my next option, unless we have a miracle cure!!!
