Hi,
My mother has Stage five Colon Cancer which has attached itself to her pelvis and she will not be able to have surgery unless they are able to make the tumor mobile, so she starts Chemo/Radation tommorow, and will continue for six weeks.
She has been taking Endocet for pain and was given a prescription today for Oxycodine.
In the last week or so her pain has been getting worse and she is now having alot of trouble being able to Pee. She said she needs to, but cant. I was wondering if any of you have had similar sythoms and can perhaps shed some light. Shes had two urine tests, one on Friday and yesterday but no results back yet. Is it possiable the tumor may be causing this? or that it has spread? Her doctor did tell her to be prepared that when they operate it is possiable they may have to do an emergency hysterectomy as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
