Dear doodoolatrice,

Thank you for your post- I'm sure some of our members will be along shortly to share their experiences, or advice on dealing with lower appetite.

Please make sure you let your clinical/trial team know about your reduction in appetite- they will want to make sure this is noted but also may have some tips for you.

In the meantime, it's important to make sure if your appetite is lower, that you keep consuming energy-rich foods to maintain your strength.

I've included a couple of links below for ideas and advice on how to do this:

Best wishes,

Hi Jo, yes they are aware and have given me a list of what I need to be eating. I went off so many foods whilst on chemo I'm trying to introduce new recipes into my diet to encourage me to eat more. Thanks for the links, I'll have a look. Many thanks Kerry
