He thinks he has groths in the mouth, cheek bones etc. he chose not to go back into the doctor for futher treatment.

Hi and welcome to HCM,thank you for your query. Yes, these symptoms are probbaly caused by combination of his primary malignant disease and drinking which obviously caused severe liver damage. Honestly,this condition you re describing is very serious and treatment is only palliative. In every case drinking is just worsening situtation but of course it is not easy to explain him that he should not drink so much since his emotional condition is probably poor. Bleeding from stomach and bowel should be terated by iron and blood transfussion. Wish you good health. Regards.
