Guest guest Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 Hi My Dad is now 79 and has a very mild form of prostate cancer. But he also has diabetes and phlebitis (painful leg/foot), apparently some liver disease (which may now be reducing if due to alcohol - he used to take a couple of whiskies at night), and lung disease (they have not said what but he smokes and has to prop himself up at night when sleeping). He has lost weight for over two years and is now having constant pain from the phlebitis plus he is getting Hypos more regularly (about one a month) when his blood sugar levels get too low. He is on a very low dose insulin injection once a day. He is eating well but gets a loose tummy each morning - clearly the medics believe he has bowel cancer but they cannot find it and have now stopped looking. Any suggestions welcome Love and Healing Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
