Hi I did review your concern
I am sorry to hear about your husbands health
Adrenal gland cancer can be either adrenal cortical cancer or pheochromocytoma. It can cause sudden increase in blood pressure or choking or panic attack like problem with effects on heart rhythm
If it is a pheochromocytoma i would recommend you to get a regular blood pressure check up and if elevated take alpha blocking agents and beta blocking agents to maintain pressure.
I hope this helps.
wish you all the best
