Hello Medwin.  I finished my chemo back in December as well.  I have noticed that my sense of taste and smell is nowhere near as good as it used to be.  I also have numbness and pins and needles in my fingers and toes.  From what I have been told Medwin, and from speaking with others who have had chemo in the past, sometimes these side effects last for years.........in other words, you might never get your sense of taste and smell back, Violet, x

Thanks for the reply Violet. Hope that your symptoms improve soon.

Hello Medwin........to tell you the truth, my problems are a bit more serious than losing my sense of taste and smell.........since the chemo finished I was recently told the cancer has spread.  I am stage 4.............but I beieve that where there is life there is hope.  Take care mate, and wishing you all the best, Violet, x

Yes my problem is not important. All I can say is keep fighting. Glad you have a positive attitude. Lots of kind wishes. 

Hello Medwin, thank you for your kind wishes, and yes, your problems ARE important.  There is ALWAYS someone who is a bit worse off than ourselves, BUT that doesn't mean that what you are going through isn't valid.  Wishing you all the best mate, Violet, x

Thanks for the lovely reply.
