Poll #1 -- Did getting sick affect your weight?

After I got sick, I  gained weight.  Although, there may be different things that affect weight, such as medication, hypo-thyroid, change in diet, or amount one is able to exercise, I thought some of you might be curious if others had similar changes.  This is not  a scientific poll.  It is purely for your interest.  The poll is located on the right sidebar, until it is closed on September 27, 2013.
