There is a test for one of them efb maybe that you can buy. Also, if you suspect a disease you have a state bee inspector who will likely be happy to come out and help diagnose it. Remember, if your hive gets weak and fails other bees from other colonies will come and rob it, and bring it back to their colonies. These diseases are taken quite seriously. You should be able to google up the contact for your county bee inspector or at least your state one.
