Hi Travisty,

I finished rads on Halloween last year. A lot of taste returned in March, but it's continuing to improve. I couldn't taste cherry (fresh or synthetic) until 2 weeks ago. I couldn't stand tea or coffee for ages. Some days my taste of certain foods disappear for a bit, but then comes back.
Just make sure you get a lot of protein in your diet to help your body heal. My dietitian has told me to have 100g a day, double the RDA for adults. Since I've increased my protein, I am feeling more like myself, rather than a patient, if you know what I mean.
