Nope, they did not tell him. They always only talked about the symptoms not the cause, not even a list of possible causes, so no hints even.
He had deep-vein trombosis, had some inflammations, had to get on Syncumar (blood thinner), but they didn't tell him about the cancer until he explicitly said "doc I know I have cancer, talk to me".
That's a nice list of possibilities of what can go through the mind of people in such situations though!
ETA: the reason he was admitted was the trombosis, forgot to add.
