What Causes Sudden Loss Of Weight With Loss Of Appetite?

Hi, recently my weight has dropped dramatically and I was concerned so I have visited my gp which is a new one every time I have made an appointment in the past, he has referred me to take my bloods, which is now tomorrow after it got cancelled today, but since visiting the gp on the 12th I am now unable to eat at all, I ve lost my appetite to eat anything which has made my weight much less. It will be 2 weeks for the blood test to come back, in the meantime what can I do. Thanks.

Hello,

I think you can check also thyroid function because hyperthyroidism can cause this weight loss also. You can upload the results here and I can give you an opinion.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
