My mum was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer 3 moths ago, they gave her 6 months.
she’s not eating hardly at all now. Had a really bad week last week and over the weekend. Tummy pain under her ribs. Vomiting. Feeling constantly nauseas, can’t face food, indigestion, agitated.
I don’t know what to do. I hate seeing her like this. No good days right now.
Is she in the end stages?? That’s what I want to know.
I need to be prepared so I can be strong and support her, but I don’t know if this is what happens at the end or if I should be calling a doctor. Please, anyone, any help very much appreciated x
hi the palliative team will be able to help you or district nurse? Yes i would call your GP and they can talk to the various teams. Your mum needs to be pain and nauseas free and that will give you comfort.
