He is starting to eat many foods now but the issue is so much pain. This is the man who had little pain during treatment and after but here we are months later and he's dealing with a lot of pain. He would be eating pretty much anything except it's too painful. He wonders if its from taking healthy tissue for that biopsy on Dec 26th and it's not healing. Biopsy done on cancer tissue didn't bother him back in July.
Also, numb hands and feet. Doc said there's a med for that but it has side effects. B12 and B6 were mentioned but he wants shots and they didn't want him to do shots but supplements so he probably wouldn't follow through with that.
any thoughts or experience are appreciated.
