Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Weight loss 15 lbs within 5 months is an alarming condition.
Loss of appetite is there with mood swings.
This is not a complete history.
Upload various reports like LIVER FUNCTION TEST, blood tests for sugar, C B C , E S R ( chronic infection).
Nausea and loss of appetite may related to Hyper acidity ( gastritis).
As there is nausea & loss of appetite so endoscopy of stomach is an important parameter in diagnosis.
Consult a physician and get complete health check up.
Good luck.
