My Dad has secondary liver cancer. We havent had a CT scan in a few months, but recently his stomach and abdomon have become VERY swollen. Does this mean he is getting worse? He is no longer on any treatment besides natural ones. Does his swollen stomach and feet mean that there's no turning back and that he is on the path to dying?
I so very sorry about your dad my mother in law is having the same effects in about 3-4 weeks she gained 15lbs. Not because of what she's eating, about 2 weeks ago they gave her ted stockings & this week we spoke toi the dr. & they have moved up her CT Scan to this week. By the end of the week we should know something. They say she may just need to have the fluid drained at the hospital. She was told in March that she had liver cancer.
Good luck & my prayers are with you & your family.Keep faith.
