Hi Char,
I hate to disillusion you, but I am 9 mos post chemo and still dealing with side effects like neuropathy and bone pain. However, I did not have lingering nausea or heartburn. I still had funny tastes in my mouth that made me nauseated periodically until I was 3 mos out. Have you checked to see if you have thrush in your mouth? This can cause really bad tastes and make you nauseated. I don't know about the heartburn, however. I think you should see a GI about it.
Hugs,

I am 18 months post Folfox and 12 months post avastin only (As part of a trial). I still have issues with heartburn that started during round 6 of Folfox. Onc. scheduled an endoscopy as well as a colonoscopy this year. She definitely said the heartburn was from the chemo. -- Tests should no erosions or other problems, but I am on daily nexium to control it.0

HI, I had Adencarcinoma of the Cervix 11 years ago. I did alternatives ONLY because someONE I met, told me of such a direction. I have learned alot over the 11 years. I beleive the Chemo is very ruff on the immune system and makes the bodies PH out of balance. I have a webpage with what I understand important things to focus on. I have more directions but felt it is more important to get people the basic info. for them to understand and then if people want to know more of what I did and AM doing now. I Am happy to tell you other positive choices for supporting the bodies immune system.0
