Riley, I hope your taste starts coming back. Every day I try something different hoping I will taste it. Maybe that might have helped my taste buds? I'm still here waiting for my pizza hint to my dear darling wife. She won't get home till 10 pm but I'll try it if she brings it. I tried Chicken noodle soup today and I could taste everything a little except the darn chicken.

Mary, I had 35 IMRT's and concurrent chemo. I can't imagine 70 rads.

Stoj, I am now able to tolerate cold (just today)so I don't have to drink the VHC's room temp any more which was pretty bad. The cold is much better.
