I forgot something when responding to the question of any special diets, supplements, etc. during chemo. Here's something: I don't drink alcohol. Ever. This was easy for me as I would have an occasional glass of wine with dinner but nothing beyond that. Think of it this way: all organs of the body need to prepare for the fight. The liver will always seek to metabolize alcohol first, thus giving it added work to do. Some friends of mine have come to realize that certain anti-depressants are suspected to interfere with the effectiveness of certain drugs as well. Just double check with your doctors on all this.
