[|Human|] My sister-in-law has been told that she has a small amount of cancer in Bile Duct. She has been very itchey & a discharge ( dark in color). They did a MRI, also. She also has a week heart & came home from hospital a couple of months ago with a monitor & defib. Before she goes for surgery on Monday, she has a appointment with her cardio doc. She is 70 years old. What do think of all this? She has a touch of dementia. He {husband} does not understand what doc is telling him.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Bile duct cancer causes obstruction in the billiard system. And this can lead to obstructive jaundice. In obstructive jaundice, bilirubin will rise. And excess bilirubin deposit in skin and gives yellowish tinge to skin. It also irritates skin and cause itching. So better to get done bilirubin level If this is raised than your sister-in-law needs urgent surgery to release obstruction of Bile duct. Hope I have solved your query. Wishing good health to your sister-in-law. Thanks.
