Thanks so much for the kind words and advice! My reason leading me to think that this is CC is because back in 2018 when he first went to the ER his CA 19-9 was over 600, then when he had to go back in October it was around 17000.

I also found it odd that even though the PET scan was negative, there was no follow up appointments. I would have thought with as sick as he was and having a metal stent placed, and with the MRI and CT showing a large mass that had spread to the lymph nodes, the Dr would at least want to follow up sometime after.

My dad is a very stubborn person so getting him to even go to the Dr. is a task. It usually takes him being so sick that he can’t go any longer so that does not help matters at all!
