Hi Nancy, I just went on megestrol Acetate. generic for megace which is a medication used for Anorexia. It's awesome, I lost 65lbs since I was diagnosed down to 130lbs. This really works. Hungry all the time. It was this or Maronal, and since I have kids I really try not to use marijuana products. I gained 15lbs the 1st month and 5 lbs last week. If anyone said I was going to gain 20 in 5 weeks I would have paid anything. Since having teeth removed from radiation poisoning I just stopped eating. Depression, hate my peg tube, it falls out in Vegas elevator (very funny). This has been a life saver. I'm eating everything I can get down and loving it. No pumpkin pie is safe anymore. Good luck and happy eating.
