Other symptoms
A few liver cancers make chemicals (hormones) that follow up on organs other than the liver. These hormones might cause:
-
- Low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia), which can cause fatigue or fainting
- High counts of red blood cells (erythrocytosis) can cause someone to look red and flushed
- High blood calcium levels (hypercalcemia) can cause nausea, confusion, constipation, weakness, or muscle problems
- Breast enlargement (gynecomastia) andshrinkage of the testicles in men
- High cholesterol levels.
