Husband currently curled up on sofa after onset of nightly rib pain. He has taken 2 paracetamol which normally kicks in with relief after an hour. He is reluctant to take any pain medication. Does not want me to contact medical help ie 111. Waiting a diagnosis for advanced bladder cancer. Meet with specialist on Thursday. Possibly op on Saturday. When should I seek help for him? Seems quite settled at moment but getting agonising watching this every night. Any advice please.
