What Causes Loss Of Appetite And Rapid Weight Loss?

Hi, I'm a 17 year old female. Few weeks ago I got bronchitis and had it for about 2 weeks, in those two week s I didn't eat a whole lot of food. After I finally got over it, I got the flu for about 3 days and again barely ate. Well now I feel like my body has nothing in it, but everytime i look at food i feel sick or if I do eat I get full after only a few bites. I already 95 pounds and extremely underweight and cant afford to lose anymore. Is it normal for me to not want to eat? It seems like I lost all appetite for food, however I do drink lots of fluids. What is going on?

Hello

Thank you for trusting HCM

Dear you have to eat soft food with concentrated calories. I think you also suffering from multivitamin deficiency may cause loss of appetite,and weight.

Eat egg albumins ,proteinex powder with milk twice a day with tab.atoz once a day. Use apetite syrp. cyphon 2tsp twice a day. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care.
