HI
Well come to HCM
It is not being mentioned here that for what your wife is on "Megace" actually it is kind of steroid being given in some malignant condition and immune disorder disease, if this was highly indicated then you can continue it, else this not necessary to continue if not indicated, just for the appetite this can not be administered, hope this information helps, take care.
