I had Taxol/Adriamycin for triple negative breast cancer ten months ago and while all other side affects have pretty much gone away my stomach still feels more easily irritated that it used to be before I had treatment. Is this normal or should I worry than something else is wrong with me?

    I had AC chemo four rounds and then abraxane 9 sessions of that. I absolutely can no longer eat the same foods. No spices, citrus things annoy me. Even sodas. Ketchup too much hurts. Peppers and heavily seasoned things bother me. I had those chemos in 2016 I still feel this way today. I even get heartburn if I'm not careful. Ive had many many scans since. I believe it irritates our lining down our esophaguses for sure. Some worse than others maybe. But mind was baked! Very aggressive they got! Drink smoothies and milkshakes. Always soothes it for me. Yogurt as well helps a lot. I'm sorry you have been effected by cancer at all.
