Re: no appetite.......
Sandra I lost a lot of weight before my dx and during chemo had to force myself to eat a small bowl of cereal for breakfast, a mandarin orange for lunch and half a ham sandwich for dinner!!! I know its not much and I didn't even want that but forced it down and it kept me alive and well enough to continue my treatments. I lost a lot of weight but gained it back about a year after my chemo finished, my Onc told me to just eat what I could and felt like during treatment and there would be time enough to eat healthily once I was well again and he was right as I need to lose half a stone right now!!
I also enjoyed some home made soups but little and often is the key I think.
