Yeah, here I am again, asking for medical advice--but not for me!
My best friend just called. Her mom is in Florida (we're in PA), and she is in her late 80's. My friend's dad just called her regarding her mother's health problems, and we both would like to know what could be wrong with her. She couldn't get a straight answer from her dad. I can't find anything on the Net, so I'm asking anyone here what they think:
1. She does have a goiter.
2. She can't speak, & having trouble swallowing and holding her head up. I think my friend said she had vomited up blood (which is NEVER a good thing).
I'm wondering if she could have cancer of the esophagus?
Any ideas? Thank you.
