My lovely mam was diagnosed with bile duct cancer in September. They tried several times to insert a stent but were unsuccessful due to blockage. They inserted a drain which helped initially but then the bag stayed empty so consultant removed it. Initially all was fine but then mam began feeling nauseous and has suffered bouts of violent sickness. Even taking anti nausea tablets and steroids she is still vomiting. She has been so positive, even coming out shopping once a week. This has really knocked her. The Dr says she must keep taking the tablets, we’re really hoping they’ll do the trick again. Has anyone else experienced this?
Hi Genies and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm sorry to read how poorly your mam is feeling at the moment.
Although I don't have the experience you're looking for, I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your mam's diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'.
