From his description the only symptom before the jaundice(which led to the cancer discovery) was a sore back. As someone who works on a computer a lot, I can tell you sore back is almost always a matter of bad posture while working(i.e. muscles complaining), and a known professional risk, much like carpal tunnel. So it's understandable why he didn't even bother to contact his physician about it.

Banks's _The Crow Road_ is one of my favorite bildungsromane.

That's depressing. I really like Banks' work. It's a reminder to everyone
to keep on top if your health. Can't imagine cancer could be that developed
without symptoms early on.

Is "Quarry" a Culture novel?
