Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I just need a bit of information on the lympnodes in the stomach. My mother who is 79 had surgery on her bowel and as she had cancer there. the reports just come back and its now in the lympodes in her stomach. She has week kidneys and had just been told that her dyalsis she dont need anymore as the kidneys seem to be function okay. She is a diabetic/ needle.. she is on lipador for her heart. They called this agressive/progressive non operatable. Chemo maybe they said maybe a help. My question is due to living a distance is my planning time.. I want to be with my mother day and night once she begins to really need me.. About how many months if she cant take Chemo would you say.. would be a very necearry time to be with her day and night as I will need to book off work. If Chemo.. samething what time frame. I am asking as people can provide an idea but until you see this on your own.. i dont think you really experienced it.. Nobody I have experienced this so this is why I am asking this.
