Not sure if I am duplicating this on another part of the site, but my husband (77) was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer about a year ago. He has multiple bone mets throughout the skeleton and whilst initially on Firmagon (hormone therapy), he has changed to Prostap as he had too much pain from the first.
He has bladder incontinence which is manageable by wearing pads but has been having often uncontrollable diarrhea every day for nearly four months. He has had an endoscopy and a colonoscopy so far and oncology say nothing to do with the cancer. He recently had an MRI to rule out spinal compression and a contrast ct scan. Nothing sinister found that they didn't already know.
However, my biggest worry is that he can no longer can eat. I have tried everything, obviously including his favourite foods. He can manage sweet things like fruit, yoghurt and soft deserts but he just cannot mange more than a couple of mouthfuls of any savoury food and is having Energy drinks supplied by the doctor.
My questions are, do other sufferers have bad diarrhea and is total lack of appetite and inability to eat normal. He is going downhill so fast and also getting dehydrated too. I am at my wits end trying to help him.
That Riveroxiban thing was probably just me and all of the concoctions I was taking.
Hope your drink went passed your throat and into your mouth.
When my food gets stuck, I start hiccuping and if it doesn't clear, they get more intense... until...
It drives Tracey mad! She says that I am wolfing down my food. Moi!!! Now it happens more when I am eating something dry.
It doesn't put me off my appetite, not that I am a 
Pig. Wonder if I will become a Bull Frog? It's very annoying when something involuntary happens, especially when enjoying a meal.
These things are sent to test us. But when you are sick of being tested...

Well obviously I would have start with a few minor operations, I am not that ambitious. I think brain surgery will be possible in perhaps another month's time, these things take time you know. I would have to study a cauliflower to know where to make the first insertion in a cranial operation. However, I am more than happy to start at the bottom and work my way up
