[|Human|] My husband had a brain Tumor removed on March 16/2015. just above his right ear. He went though 32 rounds of radiation and 3 weeks of chemo. he was not walking before the surgery but after the surgery he was walking using a walker but after the surgery everything tasted really bad to him and then on August 18 he went into the hospital again because he could not walk again. He has losted about 60 pounds now he no longer feels like eating because everything tastes bad and he was throwing up for the past 3 months when he did eat. The question I have is - Is there anything that will bring back his taste buds
[|AI|]  Hi, thanks for providing a brief history of your husband. Since you have mentioned the brain tumor surgery followed by radiation and chemo post which loss of weight and in ability to walk we should look into certain parts here. Now focus should be on the physical therapy for the same. As post chemotherapy and radiotherapy the metabolism of the cells must have got disturb which lead to loss of weight. And it is common in certain cases to lose weight. Also since he was unable to walk it has reduced the metabolic activity to slow down. Doing a passive or active physical therapy will be of help. The medicinal part will be maintained by the same surgeon and a dietician will come into role. Coordination between the surgeon, dietician and physical therapist will help you husband to improve physically and also will add on some muscle mass which will balance to weight again. Regarding the taste buds it's about the brains internal mechanism which will be better in a period of time. With the grace of God I wish your husband a good health.
