I don't have a good appetite, could it be a sign of cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: Yes. It can also be a sign of depression, anxiety, and a host of chronic illnesses. It can also be seen in people who are healthy but just don't get hungry. The poor appetite of cancer is usually associated with unintentional weight loss.
