UTI's are pretty common in women. What appetite enhancer did they give her this time? Will she be getting radiation?

Merry, they prescribed Megestrol AC for her appetite and is seems to be working. Today she had a protein shake for breakfast, 1/2 cheese sandwich for lunch and small bowl of tomato soup and 2 Ritz crackers for dinner. Does not sound like much, but better than nothing or a single protein shake in a day....

Her Oncologist says no radiation treatments while she is on chemo. She has 3 more treatments at 3 week intervals for this cycle before radiation is an option for her pelvis.
