Loss of appetite, nausea, fast heart rate due to too much stress?

Ask
Hello doctor. I have anorexia, just thinking about food makes me feel nauseous, I keep vomiting, my heart rate is fast. The doctor asked me if I was stressed or had some psychological problem? I hope you can give me some advice, thank you.

Hello Anh Thu! With the symptoms you describe, it may be due to psychological factors (after a certain psychological trauma), but first of all, you need to go to the hospital to rule out physical causes (stomach disease, cardiovascular disease, etc.) ).
I hope you overcome this situation soon, or else you will have a physical breakdown, if you don't have a physical illness, you may turn to a weak and depressed mind.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards.
