Suggest Treatment For Weakness And Loss Of Appetite
My father feels weak and has very little appetite fo the last two or three months. He is 80 years old. No surgeries. He has gastroperioses which is bad. We give hom boost juice to provide with protein. He has no hobbies. Just likes to read and watch some tv.
Loss of appetite could be due to chronic illness and it may be due to age. In my opinion, complete medical examination is necessary here, it is kind of great fluctuation seen in geriatric patient as long as the appetite is concerned.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
