My Cat Has Cirrhosis What Is The Cause Of My Dad's Ascites?

What is the cause of my dad's ascites? - my cat has cirrhosis

My father was 1 / 4 of his left lung removed before 2 weeks with 1 lung cancer stage. 9 days after surgery, returned to the hospital with ascites. He had a series of tests and a scan all the negatives. His enzymes are normal and the doctor said his liver is not considered as liver cirrhosis. Said it could be a liver cancer, but it is obvious that your opinion, because he had a liver biopsy. I had a PET scan a month ago, and the analysis showed that the cancer was only in the lung. He had lymph node biopsy prior to surgery, for example in the breast area and some in the lung. These results were negative for cancer. He is treated for C. diff for the last 2 weeks and is getting better.
All ideas, which could, and possibly liver cancer?

I have read the history of your father. I prefer to trust the results of PET! Will not the true anatomical localization and accurate, but if the liver of a tumor in this study free of charge - even if a microscopic residue - it is for a cause as massive ascites impossible! .
My happiness is as follows:
1 - carcinomatosis (hitherto neglected)
2 - The hepatic vein thrombosis (because of the paraneoplastic syndrome, or manipulated, and then in operation)
3 - heart problem, which earlier in aggreviated time after the operation.
4 - Renal concurrent hypoproteinemia neglected condition.

The mother of my friend had liver cancer and had to drain the peritoneal fluid, if necessary.

I hope and pray that your father does not ... perhaps heart failure early? Drugs can help your heart beat more efficiently ... How are your kidneys?

This is followed by the liver. It is the liver, which produces an important protein in the plasma, as a protein. Albumin is responsible, through osmosis to obtain tissue fluid in circulation. When protein is low in this case ascites. It may also be nodes. I'm sure the thing is, I love your father well.

A PET scan is not always the degree of malignancy, especially if the cells were very small when the analysis was found to show it. It is possible that cancer cells are microscopically small spread from the lungs and irritate the lining of the abdomen and causes ascites. However, there are other possibilities, such as cancer of the liver, so fluid collects in the stomach. The blockage of the lymphatic system can also cause fluid collects in the abdomen. Ascites may also be a sign of heart failure. Tan. It is hard to say. You might want to repeat the PET. . but can not (sometimes too early to approve of him immediately after the last study).

My son was with metastatic abdominal sarcoma two years ago when he was diagnosed and hospitalized for more than 30 pounds of fluid in the abdominal cavity malignancies. There were several tumors and the largest was "planted" in the periteum and irritation of the malignant cells causes their ascites.

She received Lasix () is a diuretic to rid excess fluid, and nnever to have "seeded" with paracentesis. Who works for him, and that high doses of chemotherapy to reduce tumor mass.

Later he continued his treatment with surgery, including peritoneal hyperthermia chemoperfusion in seed treatment that addresses preventing and microscopic peritoneal ascites at a time. He has not been chemoperfusion ascites.

Stay strong. Physicians should be able to follow.

It's easy, even though unfortunately not understood by the medical profession.

The metabolism of your father is in a catabolic equilibrium model. This imbalance results from the accumulation of fluid. A catabolic condition is also fertile ground for most cancers.

So, if they could not arise here today, tomorrow.

To the imbalance of catabolic balance things like oil, evening primrose, boiled soy sauce, soy beverages, coffee, eggs, and can help bring relief temorary.

CT and X-ray can aggravate the problem.

I was cured of cancer, stage 4 with freshly ground pepper and freshly grated garlic nine years ago. I have found in the pan and covered them with butter.

Evening primrose oil is related to what I am doing.

Good luck and good.
