Dang this is turning into my blog soon... I hope Jan Arne will have energy for an update himself soon.
Yesterday we went to see a doc and she prescribed him a bit stronger pain medication, and cortisone to hopefully boost the appetite and give him some energy. The blood values were good, only hemoglobin slightly below normal, even liver values were normal except for "afos" which has been above normal the whole time. Doc said nausea can be caused by chemicals released by the tumours and the tumours in the liver, or general pressure in the stomach area caused by tumours and enlarged liver.
Not sure why but Jan Arne's appetite actually improved a bit yesterday, he even asked me to make a small (onion/tomato/cheese) omelet in the evening. Don't know if that was the reason but I woke up at night and he had really bad hiccups and generally slept really badly. Good luck he has all day to take naps and recover. He is still feeling so bad though that he is not currently considering to go for the second round in Docrates virus treatments, at least while feeling like this.
