Yes, it is okay to eat - in fact, they encourage it. I always ate something mild like a small breakfast or lunch - non-greasy. Most chemo centers offer bagels, popsicles and that kind of thing. It is best to have something in your stomach...

My sister is just finishing chemo now for a Stage 3 diagnosis. I am 3.5 years out. It isn't easy, but you can and will do it!!

Sending my best to you!
