HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is rapidly reduced the weight then condition needs to be clinically examined but most of the time it could be due to functional problem, in my opinion routine blood test is must as long as the history of anemia and leukemia of your father was concern, routine health check may give some clue, hope this information helps, take care.
