Inoperable stomach cancer - Can anyone recommend palatable foods or supplements?

I have recently been diagnosed with inoperable stomach cancer following CT scan/endoscopy. I have lost appetite and feel nauseous at the prospect of eating. I have lost some weight and am forcing myself to eat while I await an appointment with an oncologist to discuss palliative care options. Can anyone suggest possible palatable foods or supplements.  I find the Ensure drinks a little hard to stomach. Regards to all on the forum. I am interested in your experiences. 

  • A very warm welcome to the Cancer Chat community Ianchris although I'm sorry to hear you've been diagnosed with inoperable stomach cancer.

    I hope these tips we have for managing diet problems will prove useful but for further information and advice, don't hesitate to give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very knowledgeable and will do all they can to help.

    Hopefully some of our members will offer their thoughts and suggestions to you soon as well but in the meantime, we're thinking of you Ianchris and hope you'll get to speak with your oncologist soon.

    Do keep posting if you find it helps Ianchris and remember that we'll be here to support you every step of the way.
