Since last month, I have been feeling bloated and uncomfortable all the time. Initially I thought of acidity problems and tried usual medicine and home remedies. However, since last week feeling a kind of pain as well. I visited our family doctor in Bahrampur and he added further tests including pelvic and stomach ultrasounds. I read about all these on the internet. My blood report didn't come good and I'm waiting for the ultrasound report as well. Am I experiencing pancreatic cancer symptoms?

Male | 25

Bloating, fullness and discomfort of abdomen in females should be taken seriously, especially in post-menopausal women. A correct diagnosis will require ultrasound of abdomen pelvis and further evaluation with CT scan or MRI. Also few tumor markers like CA-125, CEA, AFP, etc can take is closer to the diagnosis

The malignant tumor in the right breast is stage IV, with metastases in the brain, liver, and bones. This is considered a very severe situation. The upcoming seizure can be associated with a brain tumor, which would finally become the cause of the disorder. The patient also has some other concerns like hemoglobin c and increasing weight.

A high possibility that these are metastasis or emerged from cancer. I would advise you to see your treating clinician.

If there are still any doubts or your situation just doesn't seem to be improving, then you can reach out to others, but by now your doctor would have a better idea - Oncologists In India.

Female | 54

Having two glands in the neck could be due to many things, not just cancer. Sometimes, enlarged glands are the result of infections and other reasons too. Since your mom had breast cancer before, it's imperative to get it thoroughly checked out by a specialist to make sure everything is okay. It's always good to be cautious and keep an eye on any changes in the body, especially after you have already been cancer-free for a while. Voice changes and neck discomfort can be signs of several things, so it's best to get it checked by an oncologist.
