Can the doctor give me something for loss of appetite?

Lots possible...: Symptomatology as you describe is not to be ignored--its a warning sign that something may be wrong. Please see my many healthtap answers on the subject of what causes loss of appetite. Not all such problems are serious, but you don't want to miss the problem that is. Once worrisome conditions are ruled out, yes, there are appetite stimulants that can be prescribed.
