I've been done with treatment since 6/07, the G tube was yanked in September. My family and friends have all become obsessed with my weight and how little I eat these days. I simply have no appetite - I don't feel hunger no matter how few calories I eat during a day (I'm LUCKY to get in 750-1000 a day). I have my taste back, I mechanically have no problems eating (other than dealing with the dry mouth) - I just have no interest in eating. If I get busy, I will completely forget to eat and won't even realize it until my energy level crashes. I wasn't overly concerned myself with the weight loss until I stepped on the scale at my rad onc appointment last week and saw that I had lost 15 pounds since my last appointment 3 months ago. That brings my grand total to 75 pounds of weight loss since 5/07 (thankfully I had some weight to lose). On the BMI scale, I can lose another 10 pounds before being considered "underweight."

Has anyone else had this issue? I'm worried that if this cancer pops back up I'll have absolutely no reserves left to fight with. My scan results the other day show two "pulmonary densities" - one in each lung - 7mm in one and 9mm. Of course I'm panicked about whether or not they are mets...I see the doc again on 12/27...
