The constipation can also be causing her pain. If she is backed up that badly the doctor should be giving her something by prescription. If that still doesn't work she may have a blockage and need surgery. Tell her to not give up. She needs to investigate things further. Wouldn't she feel silly if she died from a piece of poop instead of this stupid cancer? At least find out what it is. You can't fight the unknown. God bless you both and good luck to her.
