Confused

Recently my mom has been having dark brown urine on and off for past 2 weeks.  Water sample is saying no infection.  Blood test only shows slight sodium concern .

Still waiting for ultrasound appointment.  My dad had bladder cancer so know the symptoms.  Could severe dehydration be the problem.  

Would pancreatic cancer show up in a routine Blood test.  My mom often complains of feeling nauseous some mornings. 

Am I just panicking for nothing.  

Thanks 

  • These are very specific medical questions that are best answered by a medical professional. If you know what type of cancer is being looked at then you could post your question in that specific Support Group that can be found in this list.

    Macmillan have many support platforms so do check out the Macmillan Support Line is open 8am-8pm (timings may differ across services) 7 days a week on 0808 808 00 00 or via Webchat and Email too.

    These services provide cancer information, practical information, emotional support, benefits/financial guidance or just a listening ear. We also have our Ask an Expert section but do allow a few working days for a reply.
