A report this afternoon says that Hugo Chavez is now battling painful bone metastasis: http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/news/2012/11/29/venezuelan-president-hugo-chavez-battling-bone-metastasis-report-says/#ixzz2Dht6nUHx

Up until now, reports of his cancer have been vague. Now, his cancer is being described as "pelvic cancer." It sounds to me as if it might be prostte cancer. What do you guys think?

There was a recent election in Venezuela. If the people had known that Chavez was in the end game with cancer the outcome might have been different.

good point San Carlos. john kerry was diagnosed with PC while campaigning for the presidency. we didn't find out about it until after the election before he was treated.

Mr.Chavez had chemotherapy immediately after diagnosis, which I think would be unusual with PC. My guess is some sort of bowel-gastric issue, perhaps bladder? Anyway, wish him well.
