Nasopharyngeal Cancer Survivor - 07-05-2006 10:20 AM
Hello. My name is Anne and I'm 49 years' old, living in Michigan. I'm a recent survivor of nasopharyngeal cancer. I underwent radiation and chemo, had a feeding tube, and ended up in the hospital a few times due to low white blood cell counts and infections.
My worst problem now is the new "me". I have to drink water constantly and am having trouble finding things to eat. Can anyone offer some nutritional advice?
I can't eat anything spicy or sharp. What I hate is that at one restaurant I can eat, for example, mostaccioli, and then at the next restaurant it's way too spicy.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
