Question: Hello my friend is 38 y old female just lost her apetite and states that she cant digest food. what is could be?
Thank you
Thank you
Brief Answer:
There is no reason to worry about this!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear that your friend lost her appetite. If this is the very first time it happened, there is is no reason to get bothered. It all happens to us at some point and in a vast majority of cases, it is not related to a disease or an ongoing disease process.
For now I recommend she thinks of what she likes most and try to. Even if it doesn't seem to help right now, I am optimistic all would return to normal without the need of any further medical attention. Let her keep calm and all would be fine again unless otherwise.
Kindly let me know does she have any medical illness?
I hope this helps. I wish your friend a speedy return to her good levels of appetite. If this persists, let me know so that we can probe a lot deeper for answers. Thank you so much for using our services.

Well she is under lots of stress and it looks like her nervous system reflected on her stamacks and she complainsthat her face swells up sometimes too
Brief Answer:
Let her try to address the stress!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this follow up information.
I will suggest that she tries and resolve this stress that is lingering around. This could be the reason why she is not getting interested in food.
If she could detail the difficulties she is going through, I may be able to provide information on how to go abut them and some coping strategies as well. I will need more information about the face swelling and probably an image of this to understand more about the face that swells up sometimes.
I wish her well. Let me know what your take is on this.
