Definitely: It is quite normal to lose your appetite during an acute illness. But, it should come back as the illness gets better. If it doesn't, or if the weakness gets worse, don't delay and get checked out. I hope you feel better.

Loss of appetite: Part of having your appetite back is that your gut is ready to handle food and your well enough that your body is giving the signal for you to consume fuel.
