I couldn't eat for a while, and drank Boost and Ensure, even tho I couldn't taste it, actually it tasted like cardboard. I was on morphone and do remember the constipation problems. The oncologist gave me something to relieve it and I cannot remember what it was. Sorry. Know that I am thinking of you and praying for you! Take Care, Carol
