A member asked:
Is losing 8 lbs over two weeks unintentionally a concern? only other symptom is a nagging cough but dr said chest is clear from listening to it.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It could be: Just a single chest examination does not rule out something serious happening in your chest. If the weight loss and cough continue, insist on getting some more studies. Be sure to stress that you are very concerned about the weight loss and it is unusual for you.
