My father is just over 60 and he has a very large stomach (ascites) filled with fluid and keytones in his urine. He also has lumps in his belly that can be felt when you touch his stomach. And he has lost a great amount of weight. His prostate, kidney, pancrease, and liver have all been tested as healthy. The doctors suspect cancer of the colon although we are not sure, is xeloda also known as capecitabine the right path of treatment?

my husband went in several months ago to the ER (he was in extreme pain)for a colon issue and got a cat scan. They found no problems with his digestive system or anything in the cat scan..they told him he should see a gastroenterologist . So he did a few mths later (after insurance had kicked in) and the results oft the cat scan were faxed to the gastroenterologist(sp?) and they told my husband that the cat scan showed that he had kidney stones…

The hospital said NOTHING about kidney stones!! Isn’t it there job to tell him if something was wrong!?!

Someone said that because thats not what he went in for that they didnt HAVE to tell him about it…

The gastroenterologist said the kidney stones shouldn’t get any worse if my hubby changes his diet. so they aren’t an immediate threat. But he could have been working on fixing it MONTHS ago!!

Am I wrong…but I think they should have told him!! Can I get the in trouble for that!?! lol
