Nausea and Vomiting
According to the Mayo Clinic, another common symptom among individuals with stage four liver cancer is nausea and vomiting. This symptom is common because the bile duct is connected to the liver. The bile duct is also connected to the gall bladder which assists in digestion by producing bile which processes fats and food substances. As the liver begins to shut down, the bile duct is also affected, making a person feel nauseated and inducing vomiting after a meal.
