Hi
I am caring for my husband, who has been diagnosed with lung and adrenal cancer this summer.
He had experienced back ache at the beginning of the year and finally agreed to see his GP, who noted a tumour near his kidney.
A referral to the hospital and a CT scan revealed that he had lung cancer with a secondary large tumour on his adrenal gland. Biopsies for both followed and final diagnosis and treatment plan in July.
He has had two treatments of chemo and immunotherapy now and has become very frail and confused due to low didium levels. He has been unable to eat anything much in the last few weeks, so I am trying to ensure he has fortisips regularly.
Now he is on morphine capsules, which have relieved the pain, but made him very sleepy.
I am really struggling to ensure he has sufficient to eat and drink to ensure he can continue with treatment.,
