This is really weird! During treatment I had many different side effects, one of which was a horrible overly sweet taste in my mouth that made it hard to eat much of anything, but especially anything sweet. It went away along with all the rest and it has been almost 3 years since I finished treatment. This past week I have had this same taste return and hate it. Not only is it awful to have this taste in my mouth again but it brings back so many memories that I have been able to put behind me.

Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen?

    Hello ceeker, and welcome to Breastcancer.org.

    This community's members have experienced just about everything, so you'll likely hear from someone with the same effect. It might help if you could say which treatments you had? Was this from chemotherapy, and which one/ones?

    This page from the main Breastcancer.org site lists some of the treatments known to cause Taste and Smell Changes.

    HaHa, duh. Yes this was from chemo treatments. I had 3 different rounds. I would have to look in my journal to remember them all. I also had a mx and radiation therapy.
