    I know how hard this is for you Andie, I check ur dads progress regularly as his case was very similar to my mams who passed away December 1st. She had only been told three weeks b4 hand that it was bile duct cancer. She passed away in her sleep in the local hospital which was a peaceful release for her. I pray for u and ur family at this difficult time my mam never got to this stage even. Best Wishes, Molly.

    She now has to go to a specialist and get the bile duct drained and then hopefully we will find out the cause of all this I pray that all this will have some good news at long last for us! For three weeks we have had knock
    back after knock back and now we cling onto this hope that there is something less serious wrong with mom! She is very weak
    and sick but this is all down to the horrible build up of bile!

    Mom is back in hospital after a little accident over the weekend but I feel this is the best place for her to be! Doctors aren’t happy with the steint and are saying that the bilirubin levels. They havnt gone down as much as they had hoped! They are keepin a very close eye on her thankfully and are confident that they will find out the problem via ultra sound! Please god this works all the news is going for bad to worse but maybe it’s better to have all the bad news now rather than a few months down the line! Surely our prayers and novenas will
    be answered??? This site is full of hope and has made me much happier!

    The cancer has been shown to have sprees to the liver and the stomach lining! I’m not sure what the b level is yet to be honest I feel that they are very out of practise in this area as there are so few cases! We hope that she is releived of the itching and the yellowness soon! How long does it usual take for this to improve? She is very strong and up beat but after the steint been put in 3 days ago she’s very tired down and not as strong or motivated! Any Advice I will take!!

    Andie, My mom was diagnosied with bile duct cancer last Week ! My world fell apart as surgery was not an option! All the doctors could offer her was a metal steint and chemo but we are not sure when this will start! She had the steint put in a day and a half ago but is still itching like mad at night time only! We hope and pray that all this will turn around for us, it was meant to be so simple (gallstone blocking bile duct) but for the last week every piece of news we get is bad! We are considering getting a second opion off doctors in the UK as we are from Limerick, Ireland and bile duct cancer is very rare here about 10 cases a year we were told! I hope ur dad is keeping well!
