Hello @muradangie and others reading this great blog about RDN and cancer.

I would so like to share how RDNs have helped me. I have had three surgeries of the upper digestive tract for carcinoid cancer. It has not been easy adjusting to a new normal. Eating has been difficult, often because I really don't feel hungry like I used to. I also feel full quickly. Since my surgeries, I have had two visits with RDNs and they have been most helpful.

I was given great information about why my appetite was not like it was prior to the surgeries and great information about how to get as much of the important nutrients into my diet.

The work that RDNs have done have given me insight and guidance. As a mentor on Mayo Connect, I've recommended their services to others who have had problems with developing good eating habits after surgeries and cancer treatments.
