I also haven’t had HIPEC but my appetite is greatly helped by THC products, even during chemo. Hence I’d definitely give medical marijuana a go, or even better if you can get some THC/CBD (full spectrum) oil (safer and easy to control dosing, with fewer undesirable side effects). 2-3 drops about an hour or so before dinner and I can actually eat a proper meal, which is a big change from before.
Also if he’s not already taking zofran (ondansetron), this can be helpful to relieve any nausea that might be in the way of his appetite.
Good luck,
Rob
