Appetite

Hi

Recently diagnosed with breast cancer and one dose of Fec-T chemo and eating like a horse, is this normal? Xx

  • Hi

    I have just had my 2nd dose of FEC-T and I'm with you on eating like a horse.Everything still tastes naff and I feel sicky but I'm SO  hungry.Little and often VERY often is my thing at the moment.

    I don't think I'm wrong in saying that we can puff up a bit whilst on chemo purely because the steroids make us hungry.

    Hope that helps?

    Thanks for this glad it's not just me! Fortunately I've not had any sick feeling and my food tastes ok at moment! Only side affects I have at the moment is getting tired around 7pm and lack of a bit of energy!

    I agree I'm eating whilst I can as if I can't now when can I! Hope u continue with good progress

    Regards colista
