Have you ever lost your appetite after having a fever?

I had a high fever last Wednesday, and ever since then, everything has tasted bitter. The bitter taste has mostly subsided now, but I still haven't gotten my appetite back.

After just two or three bites, I feel like I'm going to puke. Because of this, my stomach sometimes hurts because I'm literally starving. However, I can't explain why I have absolutely no appetite at all.

Yeah. I have lost about 15 pounds in the past couple of months, cold chills, sweats and fevers were a big part of that. Slowly getting my appetite back for certain things but can’t eat like I used to so still losing some weight.

I think because the body needs to use energy to recover from the illness, digesting food is not the focus, so your appetite stays low and you can only eat little bits at a time.
