See doc: He needs a full exam and workup as serious conditions may cause his symptoms. Best will be to start with his doc, having access to his past medical history and for continuity of care. Depending on findings, specialist input may be needed. The sooner, the better.

Agree with Dr. P: Unintentional weight loss can be serious and warrants an eveluation by your doctor. Wish you and your husband good health!
