I've been to lots of doctors about this actually, because loss of appetite wasn't my only symptom, but the general malaise is ultimately what triggered my decision to move to Chicago now as opposed to some other time. I think my body was telling me that it was time for a change of environment. Of course trying to relocate while you don't feel so great isn't the best situation, but I think it the long run I will feel better because I will be more content.
