Hi GrahamK, 

Loss of appetite as a result of cancer or cancer treatment is a common occurrence and I am glad you have had a great dietician to advise you at the moment. There is information on our website on taste changes and loss of appetite and you will also find tips for managing diet problems as well as a detailed general section on diet problems with cancer. We also have a page on weight loss which might be helpful. Don't hesitate to keep talking to your dietician about this as well as your GP and I hope that they will have some good suggestions for you. 

I hope that your appetite will soon improve and that you will hear from other people who have experienced this and that they will have some good suggestions for you. If you wanted to talk to our cancer nurses about this, you can reach them on this free number 0808 800 4040 - their helpline is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. 

Best wishes,
