Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
Metastasis in liver with GI junction malignancy indicates bad prognosis and no possibilities of surgery.
Involvement of liver suggest loss of appetite, deep jaundice, fluid in peritoneal cavity, fatigue and weakness may develop in coming days.
You should consult with oncologist and go for chemo-radiotherapy as soon as possible.
Oncologist in your city is the best option for giving him treatment.
Hope for better recovery.
