I am on a 1/2 dose of Cabozantinib. I have very little taste. I really cannot eat most foods but can eat things with maple syrup poured on and fruit cocktail and Chocolate Boost.
When I was on Votrient / Pazopanib a while back (May 2018) I lost my ability to taste salt for the most part after a month - I could still taste sweets but i was staying away from sugar so that was of little consolation. I still ate, but didnt enjoy food like I used to.
I stopped the Votrient 7 weeks ago to start on immunotherapy and my taste buds came fully back in a couple weeks, not to mention my energy level, and my gastrointestinal issues dissipated.
