Hi @denise96 , I did find a few pages related to the condition: Cachexia.

His doctors have recognized the state that he's in, have they had any other suggestions? Have they gotten you in touch with a palliative care team? Palliative care is generally helpful in managing the side effects and symptoms of the disease.

His doctors have noted this. They gave him remeron to try because one of the side effects is weight gain, but he won't take them. But I will check out the articles you mentioned. Thank you.
