Build up of fluid

i have been told that I have cancer but have to wait a week for results to see what stage etc. I have build up of fluid in my stomach, I had 5 litres drained the other day. My question is if cancer does get treated will the fluid be treated too or does that never go away... can you even live with it for long or is this a death sentence... by reading on google looks like it is a death sentence....

  • My Mum has what is called asities,a build up of fluid in the stomach,from the cancer spreading from her breast to her liver. Your prognosis is better the younger you are,as there are more treatment options. Do not worry and just wait for a proper diagnosis. In my Mum's case she not only has breast cancer but has cachexia and has wasted away very quickly. I'll say a prayer for you Kelly,God bless.
