4. Nausea
It normally comes with a loss of appetite or abdominal swelling, but nausea could also show up before any other symptoms of liver cancer. As your liver loses function, it fails to filter out all the toxic by-products of your regular metabolism, and those can build-up to cause a vague feeling of sickness, or more pronounced nausea.
As the build-up continues, the nausea can worsen, turning into vomiting and severe loss of appetite. In other cases, the tumor on the liver will produce certain hormones that lead to high blood calcium levels (called hypercalcemia), which can lead to nausea and other digestive distress.
