Definitely see a dietician !  You should be able to access one through your doctor. Ensure is much better than any of the other readily available alternatives ( Sustagen or Sanitarium) and my husband likes shakes made with the powder and a banana and a little ice cream. The hospital may have something even better. In WA the hospitals provide Fresubin which comes in several different formulations. I believe it it's only available through dieticians. ... View more

Hello... My husband was diagnosed with bile duct cancer in December 2021. It has not spread but is inoperable and a stent has been put in. He had a lot of bleeding from the stent and several procedures to stop the bleeding.  He is now starting chemo and we're not sure if we can make it work - it's hard. Even though it is the same cancer,  it is a different situation and I'm unlikely to be able to offer useful information.  But it's a relatively rare cancer so I  thought I'd just let you know that others are out there .   Friends and family say 'What?' when you tell them it's cholangiocarcinoma.  That can make it harder. My very best wishes to you and your father.   ... View more
