How Long Can A Person Live With Cancer That Is Causing Itching, Liver Pain And Jaundice?

    By now (two months after you posted the question) you may already have your answer in this case, and I offer condolences to you.

    Liver failure means death, but jaundice pain and itching only mean the liver is highly distressed, not necessarily failed.

    But it is different with every person, even once you fully expect someone to die imminently.  I knew a man who had almost total heart failure and went into Hospice care expecting to die right away, but lived on for another year and a half.  I knew a woman whose lung cancer came back and she was given two months to live; she wrapped up her life affairs, moved from Detroit to San Francisco to be with her sisters, then was astonished to live well, free of symptoms, for two more years, after which she suddenly passed away.  On the other hand, I knew a young woman whose metastasized breast cancer was slowly killing her over a period of years; one day she woke up jaundiced-looking so went straight to the doctor and learned she was in liver failure, and within a day or two she had died.  

    Make sure your loved one with liver problems has looked into adding natural remedies to support his or her liver, such as Milk Thistle herb capsules, MSN powder, NAC, and so forth.
