What are the chances of ovarian cancer and IBS diagnosis being mistaken one for the other?
In everything I have read, the stmptoms are very similar. One of the only differences I have seen is that low back pain is not usually listed as a symptom of IBS.

my dad is 70 years old and diagnosis with liver cancer should he give up on the chemo treatment?
Background: it is going to be his 5th chemo treatment. The doctor cancelled his 5th treatment because he thinks that his liver is too weak to accept the new chemo drug. the csncer cell is just little bigger than a yr ago. The doctor discovered the cancer cells last March. it hurts me every time i learn about his experience in the hospital. i told him to eat all he likes and not worry about the cancer since it is not getting any bigger. am i doing the right thing? he is fine and not feeling any pain at all from the liver... so i wonder if this cancer was really a cancer that is life threatening... since then he lost weight and get less happier... life is so unforgiving sometimes.
thanks guys, i wish it were me to suffer... he has been a good dad and it is going to be one of the most painful experience in my life.

How can my lady Pat live through her new diagnosis of Lung Cancer?
She has been diagnosed with Non small cell Broncioalveolar carcinoma in right lung of about 3cm, no lymph node envolvement, probably no matasties in the other lung but cannot be possitive of this.
She is a long distance swimmer in the cold ocean so is quite fit and has stopped smoking, which she did only several a day until several months ago. She has been a medical assistant to a good oncologist for many years so her treatment will be good medically. I am only hoping that there are other approaches to hopefullness as the medical ones are not very promissing.

What is the next step after a lung cancer diagnosis?
My future mother-in law has been diagnosed with lung cancer. She has only been sick a few months. I don't know if it is small cell or non-small cell though. Within two days of being hospitalized they had to place her on a vent and they have drained over a quart of fluid from her paracardium. She is breathing on her own but the tumor has blocked her airway and the tube is physically holding it open. She has now been intebated for about a month. She has also been given one treatment of chemo. I have been told that it is stage IV by a family member but I know that doctors do not categorize small cell lung cancer this way.
My question is what is the next step? Because I am not "officially" a part of this family (the wedding is next spring) doctors and nurses will not tell me details. Other family members do not want to know the bad news and don't ask. I am trying to console her husband as well as my fiance. And they do not understand what is going on. Please help me help them.

Please help me with a potential diagnosis?
I have some slightly swollen nodes in my neck and armpit for a few months now. They are moveable. I have slight drowsiness and slight spleen and lower back pain during the day. I have NO night sweats, fever, loss of appetite, weight loss, rashes or itching. I actually gained about 3 pounds. These symptoms came after a period of great mental stress in my life. I also have depression and am unemployed. I have been to 3 doctors, they don't think it is cancer. Could I have lymphoma cancer? I am 31 year old married female. Thanks.

Medical question – prostate diagnosis -?
My brother just told me he has to go in on the 18th for a biopsy on his prostate. He had not told me about it before but he had mentioned his PSA test he had done not long ago was "good" and it had a very low score. I didn't think anything more of it. Now I'm realizing he must have went for the PSA test due to something not being right (he is 43 yrs old), I assume either problems with functions or swollen prostate gland most likely. He went and had a manual check of the prostate at the doctors recently and it sounds like the doctor determined by shape or swelling or whatever that he should have a precautionary biopsy done soon. My question is just - Is this "normal" procedure that doctors follow on prostate problems in men? I have no knowledge or experience in this, and frankly this is a first for my brother too, so I thought I'd ask some medical professionals on here for their opinions, or men who have gone through this already. Thanks for your information.
Narrowing of the vessels at the base of neck is a diagnosis given to my 77 yr.old Dad & looking for insight?
I looking for some straight answers as I already know that my Dads situation is not good.
History:
My dad has a stroke one year ago which was believed to have originated from the carotid artery. He recovered very well with only long term memory loss.(on coumadin and heart pressure med due to stroke)
Over the past month he has shown increased memory loss and severe dizziness to the point where he can not stand or sit up....but this has slowly gotten better.
MRA done two weeks ago and another one done yesterday shows significant narrowing of the vessel at the base of the neck. There was obvious changes (increased narrowing of the artery)in the two MRA's done only two weeks apart.
Dr. said that a massive stroke in eminent and that there is nothing that can be done. What kind of time are we talking about generally and is there anything that can be done? The fact that there is obvious change in the MRA's within the two week period make me feel that time could be short. Dr. also said that he has Atherosclerosis. He also was diagnosed at the same time with Prostate Cancer in which his PSA's have since gone down due to seed implantation.
What do you think?
