So sorry it's hitting you so hard. I didn't have bad neuropathy, but the 'sewer mouth' was horrible. By the 6th cycle, even water (which is my 'drink of choice') tasted bad for a few days.
But it DID go away after treatment. I was thinking NOTHING would taste good again. And, don't laugh, but I was actually DREAMING of food. I dreamt of salads (vinegar was one of the first things that I couldn't tolerate on TCH), of chocolate, of pizza (by cycle 4, tomato products were disgusting), of chocolate...
Best of luck!!!
Janet
