Liver Cancer??
A friend of mine who has had hep c for years now was very ill and went into the hospital and they said she had liver cancer. But it was inoperable and very progressed. They said she had 3-6 months to live. Last week I talked to her on the phone and she sounded fine she was complaining of feeling ill but thats its. NOw this weeks she is acting all loopy and like she doesn’t know whats going on. She is using depends now. That was a very rapid change in just one week. Her husband says that she is only taking vikoden and that woudn’t make her all that loopy. Has anyone ever dealt with anything like this. I mean with the rapid change and the bowel issues. I am in total shock how this came about. One week she was fine and the next its like she doesn’t know me. Does anyone know anything about liver cancer. Does this sort of cancer consume your mind…is that whys shes acting crazy.
answer:
Kristen is right on target. Most folks with liver cancer will usually go into a coma prior to dying as the levels of toxicity rise due to failure of the organ affected. Her kidneys are working overtime and this will also be one of the reasons as the kidneys do eventually shut down as well.
Sorry to hear the news….I am a hepper to even though my HCV is cured. I do have a chance tho of still developing liver cancer.
My sympathies. Just be there for her regardless of her health, coma ect….the last thing to go is the hearing.
