Suggest Treatment For Stomach Ache, Fatigue And Loss Of Appetite
My 93 yr old father is diabetic but in very good health...he just described some troubling symptoms to me....an ache around his middle waist area...loss of appetite...fatigue...at times a stomach ache....concerned that it may be pancreatic cancer or could it be a gallbladder problem? I think it would be wise to go ahead and get him into his GP as soon as possible...would you agree or am I overreacting?
I think there is a possibility of him having gallbladder issues as well as pancreatic issues. Nothing can be said for certain if not doing an abdominal ultrasound.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
