GP

I have been feeling unwell lately. Saw my GP on Friday and explained my symptoms which are mostly tiredness and weight loss. I am having tests later in the week. Without waiting for the results my GP told me that his opinion is that I have Pancreatic cancer. Surely it was wrong of him to say that so prematurely? He has terrified me. Does anyone have any thoughts please

  • I find the doctors speculating before you have had any tests quite unbelievable! 
    There could be many many reasons for your symptoms. 
    I'd try not to worry until you know what you are actually diagnosed with by a specialist. 
    seems insane to assume anything at this point. 
    A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. 
    Good luck and stay positive worry will only make things feel so much worse.
