Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your mother's situation and problem.
Cancer drugs and painkiller are known to cause gastric ulcer and hemetemesis (blood vomiting).
Another possibility is worsening of pancreatic tumour which is now involving stomach and cause blood vessel erosion and hemetemesis.
So better to get done CT scan of abdomen and upper GI scopy to rule out above mentioned causes.
First diagnose herself and then start appropriate treatment.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wishing good health to your mother.
Thanks.
