What specific blood test can detect weight loss reasons?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No one test: There are many reasons for weight loss and there is no single test for it. It requires a detailed history, physical examination and then may be some tests. See this site for additional information. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003107.htm
