Yes i have been diagnosed. I have had 2 rounds of chemo, and I'm wiped out. No appetite for food. Any suggestions?

@nursed2075- having cancer sucks and so does chemo. I drank tons of water to help get the chemicals out of my system. One of the chemicals that I had was cisplatin and that absolutely killed my appetite. I was also wiped out.
I forced myself to eat, small helpings of at least some protein. I also could handle pastries and the like.
Believe it or not exercising will help with energy.
What type of lung cancer do you have? Did you have any surgery?
Do you have family at home to help you?

@nursed2075- Good morning. I'm checking in to see how you are doing. How is it for you having cancer and having the COVID-19 virus going around? Does it make things more difficult int he hospital when you have treatments?
