I am learning as I go. I am a newbie to this group. I felt like I was the only one with stents placed, gallbladder removed and my first trip to Mayo. I’m in Minnesota. Had my 3rd chemo treatment last week. I’m just trying to navigate the diarrhea, mouth sores and neuropathy this week. I don’t know what to eat anymore. Any suggestions?

My wife @kim1965, is starting her 9th cycle of chemo (by pills), and has had alot of what you are experiencing. Her go to over the 9 months, has been the Oreda Instant Potatoes (4 different flavors available), not sure why, but it goes down easy and is easy on the stomach. #2 on that list, is watermellon, although I heard some say watermellon can cause diarrha, so you are already experiencing that, so you might want to be careful there. Hope this helps?
