General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Pain for no obvious reason and so much weight gain has to be investigated.
I would advise :
CT scan of the chest and the abdomen.
Upper GI endoscopy.
IT is possible that there may be a rare tumour of the supra-renal glands or so which can cause similar problems.
Another possibility is having a lower lung or pleura problem although the weight gain is not in line with this.
A though history taking and physical examination can give your Physician an idea about probable diagnosis and further investigations of blood , urine and stool.
This will lead to a proper diagnosis and treatment .
