Hi, I was diagnosed with valley fever on January 6, at that point I had lost about 10 pounds, I was in the hospital for two weeks, now I am not, I will be taking meds for a year, I want to know when will my weight start coming back and should u be concerned if I have lost a little more weight since I was discharged?
Hello, It is often the case that you lose weight when you have a serious illness. You need to make sure that you are getting adequate nutrition and especially that you are getting some extra calories. Taking a multivitamin daily may also be helpful. Make sure you are also Chat Doctor.  It is not a big concern if you lost a bit more weight after discharge as long as you start gaining your weight back soon. Make sure you get plenty of protein and fats in your diet. Regards
