Torisel Chemo--Decadron Vs Hydrocordisone + Loss Of Taste

Subject: Torisel Chemo--Decadron vs Hydrocordisone + loss of taste
Date: 11/13/2007

Originally my chemo cocktail consisted of benedryl ( 2 minute infusion) + Decadron (30 minute drip) + Torisel ( 1 hour infusion).  My last 3 infusions had Hydrocordisone (2 minute infusion) subtituted for the Decadron drip. There is still a 30 minute wait after the infusion of the benedryl and Hydrocordisone, prior to the infusion of the Torisel.  Have other Torisel patients experienced this change to the Torisel chemo routine?

In addition, have any of the Torisel patients noticed a loss of the ability to taste food correctly ?
