While I'm sick with the common cold, I don't have the ability to feel hunger. I don't feel hungry or full when I'm sick, I just constantly feel neutral. The only way I'm able to tell if I need to eat again is if I feel like I'm going to faint. I'm weak in the knees, therefore I have low blood sugar, therefore I need to eat really soon. Is this normal?

    Very normal. I do the same. But just remember to eat regularly, even if it's small. Like soup, toast (with butter/margarin), drink lots of juice (real orange, grape or other fruit juice, or even v8) it will help you get better sooner.

    Perfectly normal. Just schedule times to eat, though you may not feel like it. Perhaps the BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast) could help keep you stomach from getting upset. Get better soon!
