Re: Just don't feel like eating...

CRB,

You do need to try to eat some to keep up your strength. I remember well how nothing tastes right and some things may actually be uncomfortable in your mouth.

Try making a milkshake with Ensure. Soft foods leaning to the more bland like Apple sauce, bread, bananas. Rainbow sherbet was a go to for me. And be sure to drinks lots of fluids.

Hang in there and take good care of yourself!
