Suffering From Bile Duct Cancer, Difficulty In Eating, Pain In Stomach. Suggestions?
my husband has bile duct cancer that has spread to bone, liver and stomach. He is no longer being treated with chemo due to its spread. Within the last month he has been having a great deal of difficulty eating as he gags on the food as he tries to swallow it and is having alot of pain in his stomach. Can you tell me what may be causing this.

Hi, your husband has bile duct cancer, that has spread to the bone, liver and stomach.
You too know the prognosis but i can suggest you some medicines for maintenance. I to my patients with such symptoms prescribe a combination of omeprazole and domperidone combination, twice daily, as it is an extreme case. anaesthetic antacid gel twice daily and whenever required.
give him any food he wants in a semi solid state. Thank you.
