Question: This question is regard to my mother's health, her weight was 92 kgs until she lost a sudden weight of 15-18 kgs in the last 3 months. She was mentally disturbed a few months ago and has been treated well on the medication of a psychiatric doctor, we are not sure if this sudden weight loss is because of using psychiatric medicine or due to some other reasons. When we asked our psychiatric doctor, he suggested to undergo different health check ups and medical tests whose reports are disclosed positive after a deliberate testing. But our question is still unanswered about her weight loss and a general physician suggested to undergo cancer and TB tests as the final tests that may resolve our doubt.
I want to know what are all the tests needed to carry out as far as the cancer and TB investigation tests are concerned, and also the best hospitals in XXXXXXX which can conduct these tests at their best.
Apart from psychiatric medicine, my mother has been taking BP, Thyroid, UTI, prevention of consequences after removal of uterus, diabetes medicine since a long time.
