Hi Sheila,
Thanks for getting in touch and welcome to our online community.
I can see from your profile that you’ve recently posted on our online pancreatic cancer forum too. You have described some concerning symptoms and asked how to help your husband.
It sounds like he needs to be assessed straight away.
We would recommend that you get in touch with his hospital team straight away. He should have a cancer treatment helpline or emergency phone number. If you think he needs urgent help, you should call 999.
I’ll post an answer to your question about infection markers soon.
Best wishes,
Carole (Macmillan Information Nurse Specialist)
