While I have finally gotten off the PEG and am able to eat many foods, I find I have no appetite at all and find I have to mentally prepare myself before each meal. I know it's a combination of so many things and will hopefully pass over time. However for now I could easily skip meals and not feel hunger.

I will be talking to my doctors on this, but wonder if anyone has tried any meds to stimulate appetite? I haven't researched them yet but wonder if they are helpful?

Thanks in advance,
Nancy
