What Causes Lack Of Appetite And Stomach Cramps Despite On Prevacid For Acid Reflux?

Hello, my names Matthew. For a couple months now, I have barely been able to eat. Some days a piece of toast other days not much more than that. I feel extremely hungry, sometimes to the point my stomach cramps, but when I eat or by the time my food is ready I have lost my appetite, and am extremely sick. I feel as if I ll throw up, if I eat another bite. I do have acid reflux sometimes but I usually take a Prevacid or two tums. And I feel better but still unable to eat. Please help me. I d go to the doctor but I don t have insurance not can I afford it now

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the symptom of loss of appetite then underlying cause needs to be found out apart from the systemic disease it could be due to some functional factor, still it is advisable to get done the routine blood test with liver function test, (Your age and gender are missing else something better could have been thought ) hope this information helps.
