Pancreatic cancer - will be having chemo soon. Does anyone else have this cancer?

I have recently been diagnosed with this,  not early enough for surgery but I am heading for chemo soon. Anyone else around with similar??

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat Lind73, although I'm sorry to hear you've been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

    Even though you're not able to have surgery, it's good you can still have chemo and I'm wishing you all the best for when you begin.

    I've had a quick look through the forum and found that  and  both made posts a few months ago saying they had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer too, and now that I've tagged them in this post they will hopefully pop back to the forum when they can to say hello and tell you more about themselves.

    If you'd like to find out more about your diagnosis, or just talk things through with someone, you can give our cancer nurses a call. They're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and they will do all they can to support you and give you any further information that you may be seeking at this time.

    I hope this helps Lind73, and all goes well with your treatment.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
