What Causes Excessive Weight Loss And Nausea?

I am65 years old and have lost over 20 pounds in past 6 months. I am nauseated and have to force myself to eat. Nothing tastes good. My son is a heroin addict and I have extreme fear/stress. I retired recently to care for him as he has several locations of diskitis in his spine. Extremely tired, stools are infrequently formed. Blood sugars normal.
