What to eat!?
hey everyone
I'm a little under 2 weeks from my last chemo session (thankfreakinggod) but strangely I'm really struggling mentally with the general side effects I go through each cycle.

Hi Bel
thanks for your hints. I didn't get thrush but i did get a bad case of ulcers on my first cycle, so my Dr put me on Nilstat. Not pleasant but compared to the xylocaine I had to take for 3 days it was delicious.
I was also warned about being prepared to put on weight but as it turned out because i can' t eat many things I ended losing. I started chemo wanting to be very healthy so I don't put on weight but have found that my main goal is just to get enough calories into me each day and find something that I could eat.
I think I'll try more with the juices to fill me up because I think that's where most of my unhappiness is coming from the fatigue brought on by chemo and being hungry. I also agree with you about the watermelon. I would even call it comfort food now x)
