Weight gain
I actually was suprised that I did not lose weight while on chemo because I had an extremely small intake of food. I could not each very much at all while on chemo and expected to lose some weight. However, I remained the same through the entire cycle and the doc said it was because of the steriods.
I will say that as soon as the chemo stopped, I started shedding weight like crazy since I still could not eat much. Unfortunately, now my appetite and taste is back and I am gaining weight. Doctor is not happy with my weight gain.
Good luck with your chemo. Kool
