Wow what a topic,
I used to love coffee in the AM and now have reduced myself to tea, with a little honey and lemon. THe sweet things that I used to enjoy are no longer on my list....hopefully I will remember this once off chemo. Yougurt usually is a good substitiute... Dannon Lite and FIt, and bananas, The funniest is that when all else fails.... Breakfast hot pockets always allows me something in my stomach. After my 3rd round I was not eating well, becasue everything tasted so lousy... and I really beleived my platelets dropped from not eating properly. IN fact the 4th round was postponed a day because of them, so I went home and ate a cow Just kidding but did do high protien foods. Happiliy I was able to get my 4th round in the next day... count bounced to 103. Last night, I had a healthy dinner and today feel so much better than last round. Of course I am about a day behind my normal "side-effect" schedule but all in all feeling pretty good. The steak, asparagus and corn on the cob must have agreed with me. Maybe too much fiber, but I feel good.
Anyone else out there that has any suggestions?
