Just an update: Bloodwork came back normal. Thyroid, liver, cholestrol, everything "fine". I am under a lot of stress, but I've been under a bunch of stress since I was a kid, so I don't know why I'd have physiological symptoms now of all times. I'm not on any medication and like I said, I don't drink or do any drugs of any kind. The only OTC drug I'll take about once a year is aspirin. I monitor my eating and sleeping patterns pretty rigorously as well. Any ideas?
Hi there!
Well, without a detailed clinical evaluation it would be difficult to determine the cause of your symptoms. Loss of appetite could occur secondary to stress/ anxiety, nutrient deficiencies, metabolic issues, infections, inflammations, hormonal/ endocrine issues, electrolyte imbalance, medication side effect etc. I would suggest considering an initial evaluation by an internist and depending on the cause diagnosed/ suspected, it can be managed accordingly or specialist care may be sought.
Hope this is helpful.
Take care!
