Looks like we both will start radiation on 2/20. The oral surgeon who did my evaluation recommended lots of chamomile tea for my water bottle (suppose to help with oral health) and lots of tofu for my protein. On my first consultation the oncologist's nurse exclaimed that their goal is no weight loss. I doubt they are very successful with that. Even through I have extra weight to spare, I'm committed to eating and drinking nutritionally dense food and trying to maintain my weight.
