Bit unusual but I was just wondering if anyone developed a food intolerance after treatment? Since finishing my radiotherapy my body can't seem to tolerate dairy anymore where as I had always been fine before.

Hi Lila
I have been on 3 weekly cycles of chemo combo treatment for over a year & not long into my treatment I developed an intolerance to lactose. I found there are plenty of alternatives & as I love cheese & milk I have all lactose free foods now.

Thank you for your reply I thought I was going mad! I only realised it was dairy products when I started to eat a bit healthier and the symptoms eased. I had one pizza and I was in agony again. At least now I can avoid it. I know from my friends allergy that all vegan food is dairy free so at least having so many alternatives available is good. X
What symptoms do you get if you eat dairy products? I'm wondering if I might be lactose intolerant. Certainly milk tastes awful.

For me it's severe bloating, pain, cramps, flatulence & diarrhoea.

I don't have that, mine is just constant nausea that comes and goes, so maybe just the chemo drugs. Milk tastes awful.
Thanks

Hey I've had no change in taste just the same symptoms as Anveron. I do know that chemotherapy can affect your tastebuds so it could possibly be that x
