My father was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer stage IV last year, with metastasis to the liver. We were told by the doctors that the yellow skin, itching and hick-ups indicate that the liver being taken over by the disease. Has anyone had any experience with these symptoms and could you please tell me whether you are aware of any remedies, both for itching and hickups? I should add that my father is very weak and we are not able to take him to the hospital. Thank you.Best wishes, Majda May25 Sat, 23 Jun 2007 00:00:00 GMT My dad died of liver cancer but i can remember him often having yellow skin and constant itching. I can't really help you much, but for the itching, try Tea Tree Oil.It doesn't help amazingly - but it can help.  Best wishes,Sadie Sadysweet Tue, 16 Oct 2007 00:00:00 GMT
