[|Human|] My mother has bile duct cancer distal . She is 79 and weak. She is 51 and 125 lbs. Blood thinner has left her weak. H and h ? Is low but no blood transfusion needed. Chemotherapy starts Wednesday but I want the doctor to let us know if its just not worth going through the process if she simply will get sick then pass eventually. What do you think?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is important to know the complete details of your mother and the staging of disease. Unfortunately a cancer of distal bile duct usually progresses and very rarely can a patient make a recovery. In most cases the survival can be extended for 2 years, and it is really difficult to predict complete response to treatment. Cancer is a challenging condition, and we must fight the battle against cancer till the end. In other words it is difficult to allow a patient to suffer without treatment. Pain relief is also important in every patient having cancer. It is a difficult phase for the patient and loved ones, but treatment must go on. Please provide her maximum pain relief and supportive care. Provide her with nutritious food and a lot of water and fresh juices to keep her HY Chat Doctor.  Please do not worry.
