This issue was far deeper than Ikura had originally thought. The initial problem wasn't attacking the Elite Saiyan, at least he didn't believe it to be. Something else had to have started it off, and everything since had only been a snowball effect. Difficulties after the fact, lack of nutrition, lack of proper rest, other stressors, they only served to amplify the problem. A week certainly was not going to suffice in this case, not without medicinal aid. He rather loathed prescribing pills and the likes, but given their time frame, and even the few days extra he might be able to get they hardly had the chance to make proper headway. An explanation of Viral's forms served to shed light on the mystery, though it didn't appear to ease his thoughts at all. If anything he was more uneasy now, perhaps over his lack of knowledge and subsequent control over his powers. That was an issue that could be resolved with training, and that would have to be left in the hands of someone like Vegeta, or even Yumi. Before they parted ways again he would have to divulge all of his information to Vegeta, the boy would know how to make use of it. Plus that way too it would be safe from prying eyes, eyes that had been dogging him quite often as of late.

"So the starvation is because food triggers the memory of what you did, thus rendering you unable to eat... Seems we would have to address that issue first and foremost. Without a proper diet it's quite difficult to improve much else, I'm afraid. You'll need it for your training as well, we can't have you doing that on an empty stomach." To resolve his trauma on eating the Saiyan... Now this was a first. Ikura had never treated someone for eating another person, and for a moment he was rather beside himself. Collecting his thoughts for a few moments the older man sighed softly, lifting a hand to rub at his head. "Viral... A means of addressing events like these is re-exposure to the event. We can try that, and through that we can build a defense against it so you're not as adversely effected. Now I don't mean recreating it exactly, but a similar scenario. If you think you'd be able to partake in such a treatment I can arrange something for next meeting as well. I'm sorry to say I've not very much on me right now to help anything."
