Loss Of Appetite After Caffeine Intake. Feeling Tired. What Is Happening?
I ve had loss of appetite for a week now, almost feels like when I took caffeine (I no longer take caffeine pills, stopped a couple of months ago) or like when I smoked a cigarette (I also have stopped that habit, 4 months ago) just like nothingness. I only eat because I do feel weaker with no food, but not hungry. I ve also been very tired even after a full night s rest.
Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
A sudden loss of appetite can be due to various causes. There can be medical causes like gastric problems, liver problems, endocrine (hormonal) problems, etc. as well as psychological causes like depression. You have also mentioned that you feel tired and unrefreshed after sleeping. This could again be a pointer towards depression.
However, it is important to have a proper evaluation in order to ascertain the cause of your symptoms. So, I would advise you to see a doctor for a detailed physical examination and certain investigations, if necessary, so that further treatment can be planned.
Wish you all the best.
Regards,
