Lack of appetite

Hi Stephen. I have not had that experience but has anyone in your MDT discussed fitting an NJ feed tube to help you during this time ?

Not an option I’m afraid, I get enough calories from my protein drinks but dream about eating proper food.

Hello Stephen, will you be on treatment to reduce or remove the tumour? I've not read about anyone having a bleed from the OC tumour before. Lots of people on the forum or their loved ones have had issues with not being able to eat what they'd like or loss of appetite. Although my husband's treatment has stopped his problem with swallowing, 3 days into his 8th full cycle, he couldn't eat the curry he wanted, left over from what he'd made and eaten last night. However, he devoured the apple crumble our daughter had just made but had it with cold custard. The mucositis has kicked in again so he couldn't taste the curry. He could enjoy the taste of the dessert but needed the cold custard to counteract the pain from the hot crumble. Apologies for all the details about his meal tonight but just wanted to use this as an example of how much diet changes from one day to the next with OC.

I hope your appetite returns soon and you can start to enjoy eating again.

Thank you , I can swallow ok and always have but it’s loss of appetite for me . Hope your husband keeps well .
