Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am and welcome.
Thank you for writing to us.
I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. The first thing I would like to comment on is the persistent loss in appetite which is the only reason I can see from your query for the weight loss.
As this is a side effect of the percocet I do recommend a revisit to your prescribing doctor so he/she can prescribe a substitute medication to help with your pain (the reason for the percocet), this is the first step towards addressing the extreme weight loss.
The next step would be a full body PET scan to look for any other causes for weight loss, from your query it looks like your doctors have looked for specific parts, and in such cases if the weight loss is persistent then a full body PET scan should be recommended. Although, I should let you know that the scan is rare expensive so please look into your insurance coverage.
I hope you find my response helpful. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I would be more than happy to help.
Best wishes.

Hello once again.
So the percocet effect cannot last this long, and so we need to check your entire body for causes.

The PET scan needs to be conducted as we will be only wasting more time and money looking at one place at a time, instead the PET can look all over.
Please write to me and keep me updated, I only wish I were there to help further, and ponder over your case for longer with all your records.
Best wishes.
