Hi,
I'm new to the message board, and don't want to burden anyone, but am concerned about my mother's strange symptoms. She's had blood tests (normal so far, including T-cell count) but is not feeling well. Symptoms include frequent infections (including tooth abscesses and recent pneumonia), jaundice (especially late afternoon and after a meal), personality changes, floaters in the eyes, nausea, shortness of breath,
sweating and chills, weakness, drowsiness in the afternoon, shakiness, bloating, frequent urination, abdominal pain (esp. right side), loss of appetite, diarrhea, indigestion.
She refuses to go for an MRI or colonoscopy to see if anything is wrong internally (age 62 and stubborn).
Do these symptoms indicate possible pancreatic cancer? I know she would need to see a doctor to confirm diagnosis, but do these symptoms ring a bell for anyone?
Thanks. I am so worried.
