|  My last of 33 rad treatment was 12 July this year with last of 4 chemo rounds the week prior.  I began losing taste after about second week into rad treatment.  I am now just over 3 months out and can tell of no noticeable change.  My RO told me that on average it takes 2 to 10 months for buds to return.  It gets quite depressing but I juat keep hoping taste will return soon.  I am still down 25 pounds from my 180 when dx back in April.  I seem to snack very little now as few snack foods taste good, especially sweets.  I am also still very sensitive to spicy foods and am wondering if I will ever be able to get my weekly Mexican fix again!
