side effects of chemo/tamoxifen?

As well as all the other ‘common’ side effects I am now experiencing a constant burning smell. Maybe like burnt toast/ashtray. At first thought smelling thru walls next door but its everywhere. Anyone else experience same?

Hi Lek,
Strangely I did notice a slight roast dinner type smell just after radiotherapy for about a month as the burn worked its way through while using flamazine. Kept thinking I was imagining it until I realised I only smelt it each time my head was facing down…then the realisation…it was me! Did go away after!

Hi Dorsoduro,
Seriously, I’m convinced Flamazine plus radio burn made me smell of roast dinner! Please feel free to laugh…it wasn’t overwhelming but definitely a slight Eau de Paxo!
I also found describing myself as chargrilled (where I had boosters) helped my close friends feel more comfortable talking to me about it and visa versa plus provided some controlled light relief…
I’m yet to come across anyone else to notice (or admit to) roast dinner syndrome!
Flamazine is fab if you need it…and what a name for a burns cream!

Oh jeez … never once considered it maybe me that was smelling. Lol. Now where is the Right Guard… or as you suggest … Febreeze. Lol
