I have a hard time getting answers from my wife oncoligist are there other options? or have I run out. Concerned husband
Expert answer
Hi,
What you are describing sounds like jaundice which may be due to the liver or bile tracks not working. I would strongly suggest that you take her to your Doctors office or local hospital ASAP to have this address (if possible).
Thanks,
