Hi @Ixioncat ,   It's very frustrating.   Firstly though, they can't treat the cancer until they know what type it is, because each cancer is treated differently, & unfortunately, it can take some time.    Have you raised the issues with how your mother is being treated with the hospital staff?   Surely they can at least give her some pain medication.  If they're not doing that when they know she is in pain, it's time to start making noise to the big guns.  Ask to see the head nurse or the doctor on duty, & make sure they know your Mum is still in pain.  Regards the vomiting - maybe they can give her some Ondansetron??? I'm sorry your mother is going through this horrible time, & I hope she can get comfortable asap.  All the best,  Budgie ... View more
