A member asked:
What illness would cause slight weight loss despite a good appetite, and constant epigastric discomfort?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many things;some bad: This is a question that really demands you see your dr. One thing that causes weight loss and epigastric discomfort is disease in the pancreas-and that can be very dangerous.
