We have had very sad news this afternoon that my lovely other half has liver cancer at 42.
Sorry for the history...
She's been unwell for a couple of months which started with the local doctors giving her painkillers.
She was forced to call 101 seven weeks ago as the pain was so bad. She then spent two weeks in hospital with what they thought was pancreatitis. She was sent home which I believe was a mistake as she couldn't eat at the time. Three further weeks later she called the doctors as she wasn't any better and they sent her back into hospital.
She had been for a further 11 days and was getting worse and they didn't really know what was wrong.
They finally ran a test of the fluid they had taken from her intestines and the results can back today with Liver cancer.
They are reviewing the case tomorrow morning in the hospital to see what the next step is.
I want to be as prepared as possible. Therefore I would imagine they will arrange a scan of her liver to see how big the problem is and then base the next step on that. I would also like to research private care and operation but don't know where to start?
