Didn’t expect this: I was diagnosed with advanced Pancreatic Cancer 11 July

Hi 

July this year, had a mild stomach ache. I was diagnosed with advanced Pancreatic Cancer 11July. Came from nowhere, I’m 63.

is anyone else going thru this ? How do you cope?

  • Hi Sentonsands, It’s the most awful news. My thoughts are with you. It’s shocking news, not only for you but for everyone around you.
    I’m about two months ahead of you I guess. I’m at 5.1cm tumour on the tail of the pancreas spread locally to the lungs. I started chemo six weeks back. Every Tuesday. I won’t lie but starting chemo isn’t pleasant but it gets better. You start to manage it and cope.

    Wishing you the very best for Thursdays appointment.

    fight it all the way.

  • Thank you so much Mushroom300 for your kind words.  Im so glad your managing  your chemo I have been told its tough.  Its the waiting that's  also frightening.  I will keep fighting .  I can  tell your fighting it! Keep positive.
