Stomach issues on chemo
Finally started first Chemo session 3 days ago. Had a heavy head for a couple of days and now really quite uncomfortable with stomach issues. I feel like my food isn’t digesting but just sitting there...
@Caibo Try cutting up a fresh pineapple into serves (three medium size chunks were good for me), and freezing them in single serves. My GP put me onto this and I found it brilliant. There's an enzyme in pineapple juice that's said to be good for digestion and reducing inflammation. Either way, I found it really cut through my chemo mouth. I ended up craving the stuff. I felt I could taste it, at a time when I could taste almost nothing. K xox
