My mom had back surgery on August 8, and today is September 23 and she still will not set anything. She has lost 20 pounds and I am looking for ways to get her eating again

Hi there this is a site for ladies with Ovarian Cancer so perhaps you need to search Health unlocked again for what you need. All I can recommend is that you bring her to her gp and ask for the Protein shakes which will help her energy levels

I had open back su orgery two was ago having trouble eating to nothing sounds or taste good

Hi Miziprince, This is site for ovarian cancer ,but most ladies on this site has at one time had trouble eating, as food when your on chemo taste odd, I have a protein shake fist thing in the morning and find vegetable soup is good also ice cream .The best thing would be for you to find a nutritionist who could give your mum a plain to help her with appetite.

Best wishes and hope she feel better soon..Lorraine XX
