Lost 3 stone after neck dissection and secondary cancer diagnosis want to put weight back on any help, supplements I can take to help with this
Hi Len. Welcome.
Did you have Radiotherapy and how far out of treatment end are you?
Can you eat or are you PEG reliant?
Edit. I’ve just looked at your profile and see that you did have RT

Our bodies go into a sort of hypermetabolic state to heal from RT and I can say that I could eat anything for two years till I started to gain the little weight I lost.
High protein high calorie shakes are really good for putting weight on and there are plenty of recipes on the internet, a lot based on nut butters and protein powders.

Hi Len. Just have a look at those shakes. It’s good that you can eat. That’s half the battle
