Sea foods between chemos
Is it okay to consume sea foods(fish) between 21 days of chemo cycle? A generic diet sheet for chemo patients from hospital says to eat egg/chicken and to avoid red meat. No mention about fish. Will it cause any problem?

As long as it is fresh and you don't have any allergies to seafood, you should be fine. Keep an eye out for diarrhoea. Avoid making it spicy !
