He does not use alcohol. please suggest some kind medications. Thank you .....
Hi Hussain Ahmed. Thanks for your query about your Father. Sudden pain in abdomen -Tumor in pancreas -Amylase 232, known diabetic - not alcoholic - not willing for surgery - Wants to know the medications .
Since your Father is not willing and he is diabetic, we have to confirm first whether the tumor in pancreas is a benign ( non-cancerous) or a malignant meaning cancer .
IF this is a benign tumor . not causing much of symptoms due to compression, we can keep under observation and see the progress in future. If this is a cancer, we have to assess first whether this is an operable case or not. Till them keep diabetes under control, get corrected other associated medical problems if he has. Take Him to your Darmguru / Mullah or such a person , whom he can listen to and get persuaded.
