Re: Olive oil synergistically enhances Herceptin
Cindy,
Altered taste can be a struggle for a long time after chemo. Has your physician examined your mouth/tongue for any signs of yeast? This is a common problem and can really make things taste badly. If that has been ruled out then you may try some alcohol free mouthwashes/toothpastes and possibly a tongue scraper. Your dentist may have some good suggestions. Lastly, in regards to food, often things with a strong flavor like citrus or vinegar may help cover the bad taste. Cool foods may also be better tolerated.
Hope this helps at least a little.
Best wishes,
Tanya
