Suggest Remedy For Loss In Appetite

I am not around chlorine, rarely, and all of a sudden I start smelling chlorine from a pool, randomly through out the day. It doesn t matter where I am or what time of day.I dont have the best eating habits, its to the point where it may be a quarter of a meal for the hole day; maybe every 24 hours. Im always feeling nauseous. I get to the point where i just dont have an appetite. I have to mentally tell myself that what im eating is healthy and good and to keep going. The food then becomes nasty and I cant chew or digest what s left. Within 3 months I ve lost a solid 15 lbs. Went down 2 sizes. Im smaller than hight school 10 years ago...could you give me some advise please?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of smelling chlorine, lost appetite, continuous nausea, lost 15 lbs in 3 months, taking quarter of a meal once or even in 24 hours.
Since you are suffering for the last 3 months, you need the following:
Clinical evaluation by a Doctor.
Investigations of the blood, urine and stool.
Upper GI Endoscopy.
Second opinion by a Gastroenterologist and ENT Surgeon will help in getting appropriate diagnosis and proper treatment.
Enteroclysis by CT scan.
All these will lead to a proper treatment and recovery.
I find this answer helpful
