Help, Please ! My Father cannot keep anything down and is losing massive weight. He has tried several drugs for nausea and a dietician has suggested a no fat diet to help with digestion but nothing is helping. I'm afraid he may not be able to continue treatment if something does not change. I would be eternally grateful for any suggestions.

spyle, I am so very sorry about your father's cancer and now inability to keep food down. Is this associated with the chemotherapy he is on or the cancer itself? You might want to figure this out before discontinuing the chemotherapy.

I do not have any ideas to help you but to say that you should continue to work with hes medical team to find a solution.

You and your father are in my thoughts and prayers.
