Hi all,

my mum was diagnosed with oesophagus cancer stage 3 N2M0

no treatment options available and only palitive care offered despite M0. We got a second opinion via private health care and were told the same. This is mums 3rd seperate cancer and during treatment for cancer 2 my mum developed neuropathy in her legs during chemo and chemo is no longer an option so all treatment is ruled out. 
 

stent fitted 8 weeks ago. Before stent she was fairly well and prognosis was almost unbelievable. Since the minute the stent has been fitted she has been very sick. Vomiting constantly and unable to eat. No issues with stent as all she brings up is very thick  saliva not any soup or drinks she has taken in. We had Distric nurses out giving Levo anti sickness in a driver until they realised the levo wasn't agreeing with her and making her worse. 
 

no one seems to know what's wrong and causing it. All anti sickness are failing. She is suffering daily, losing weight and getting weaker. 
 

does anyone have any idea or experience with vomiting thick saliva following a stent fitting. 
 

their only recommendation at this stage is she is moved to a hospice which as a family we are unwilling to do. My mum is staying with me and while I am able to and until that is no longer an option I will not place her in an unknown surrounding and leave her alone for 22 hours a day. 
 

my mums specialist nurse has been nothing short of appauling and not helped at all. I asked about a JPEG feeding tube to help her keep up her energy and we were told nothing further will be offered to my mum in regards of eating and feeding. The private consultant at private hospital was disgusted when reading the communication and help offered and reached out to get things moving and still we are no where further. 
 

can anyone help. Has anyone been through this and managed to stop the thick saliva coming constantly. Anything at all. 
 

for contest my mother is 61 years old this is her third cancer we have all been through and we feel lost and alone.
