When you are feeling poorly with little appetite, the best thing is to eat small meals frequently. Have plenty of hot drinks too - ovaltine, horlicks, hot chocolate made with full cream milk if you are trying to gain some weight.

Eat a wide variety of food if you can, to make sure you get all the necessary vitamins and minerals for good health, and eat foods that you find easy to digest.

Years ago, invalids were fed on easily digested foods such as soups and white fish, junkets (or modern equivalent such as an egg custard) and lots of honey! Don't forget the old saying; a little of what you fancy does you good!

Hi and do hope you have managed to shake the infection, as will not help with appetite either. In my opinion you need to go for a check up and have bloods done as, unless you have other medical issues, you may have a thyroid hormone imbalance (you may have other symptoms too) or other undiagnosed problems.

You do not mention what your appetite is like, what you are doing to gain weight or to get healthy.

Best wishes and hope you are soon well and happy.
