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.

Bob- She should start to feel better as she eats more and more. I hope that she kept it down! I hope that she continues to build up her strength so that she will be stronger for future treatments. I hope that Liz hasn't lost too much weight?
