Is it normal for massive weight loss with pneumonia?

Asked by talljasperman (21916points) May 17th, 2013

I weighed myself in the doctors office a week ago and it said 161 KG and the doctor told me I have bronchitis… last Monday I went to the hospital and they told me that I pneumonia…. yesterday I went for a doctors appointment and the scale said I was 236 lbs.

I am on disability and lunch-time weekday meals on wheels is my only source of healthy food….

I feel fine right know… I finished my antibiotics and I just cough up some phlegm… 4 of the 7 people living in my house are sick.

Other than some bed bug scares, spider bites and lack of healthy food, everything is fine.
