Diet advice for vocal cord cancer. My appetite is not good and I've lost quite a lot of weight. Should I ask my consultant to refer me to a dietician?

I had 6 weeks of Radiotherapy in June 2024. I still have very little saliva and my taste doesn't seem to be improving.

I had vocal cord cancer  and all my scans have been clear since. I can't eat meat apart from mince and my appetite is not good. I have lost quite a lot of weight.

I have read so many posts about weight loss and muscle being destroyed.

My problem is that in the past I was anorexic and part of me actually likes the loss of weight as well.

Do you think that I should ask the consultant to refer me to a dietician...I have a telephone appointment on 13th February.

Many thanks
