My mother has pancreatic and liver cancer. Her tummy is very swollen over past 24 hours, any advice what this could be? We are waiting on a call back from doctor.
Hi Insightful
I am sorry to hear that Mum has a swollen tummy. Sometimes fluid can build up and this might need treatment/draining. I hope that you have heard back from the doctor- but if not I would suggest giving them another call.
