I have mets four colorectal cancer. A tumor is pressing up against bial ducts. I have a risk of it spreading to Bile ducts.

Do you have your cancer source in the bile ducts or did it mets to them from somewhere else?

thanks for your post

My mom in law- She's really bad- no strength whatsoever, tossing green and blk bile, No appetite, will not even get up and smoke... Horrible.. But she's aware of her condition and she is still fighting. It takes all she has to speak. She's gotten a lot worse since we left last Saturday am from Summerville GA. We live in tx and are trying to finish up and get back up there by Saturday again. I think moms in her last stage? Hospice is in place and the morphine is increasing..., Any body aware or have a loved one in this Area of bile duct cancer? I'm really sorry for those that are in this stage and are hurting so much..., Mom hurts a lot. The hospice has brought a , basically call it a kill kit... When she gets to the point when she's just plain miserable and wants to go on this kit is opened and contents are administered ...

Please ask for Reiki help. It helps to calm down and reduce the pain. My husband (Chu) has ampillary cancer (stage 4). He has been through whipple, radiation and now on the third kind of chemo. Acupressure, foot reflexology, massage and Reiki help him a lot. He is also taking warm water bath for about 15 minutes every night. I will pray for your mom. Bless your love and presence during this hard time in her life. Take care of your own strength and need first.

my husb was just dx with intrahepatic bile duct CA. I am so frustrated as I cannot get an answer on the time he has for reasons of his family who are out of state. The doctor keeps saying it is an "aggressive' form. He does not have much pain now but I wish I knew what to expect. Can you help me no matter how vague it might be?

Hi there,

my husb was just dx with the disease in stage IV. As aggressive as it has been stated to be I am fearful of the sort of pain he will have to endure. They are going to start chemo next week but he is just beginning to have pain and only wants to know how long he has. I wish for anyone suffering that they go quickly. I think that watching your love one hurt has to be painful. My father went through pancreatic cancer without much pain and died at age 56; so I do know how it works. my best wishes for you all.
