Can Removal Of Appendix Cause Loss Of Appetite?
Hi, I had my appendix out as an emergency last weds. Its was gangrenous. I had no symptoms till Monday when I was started getting the pain. Since I had it taken out I have had no appetite at all. I can manage a slice of toast in a day that would be it. Is this normal and will settle down??

Hi
With your query, appendix is a vestigial organ of no use there is no relationship between the appetite and appendix. These two are no way related so don worry and have good food
