Hi
my precious mum has been diagnosed with advanced inoperable pancreatic cancer, she had a CT 5 weeks ago and was told about the mass, the biopsy confirmed it was adeno-squamous carcinoma with liver mets and various lymph node mets according to pet scan report. Since then she has gone down hill rapidly and is now in a hospice! She’s lost so much weight, struggles to eat and has been in so much pain, she is struggling with nausea and vomiting and has suffered so much already and we still don’t have an oncology appointment!!
Can anyone give me any advice or thoughts on what you think oncology might offer? I am so worried they will say chemo isn’t viable because of the spread and the fact that mum is already struggling with symptoms. I also worry how she will cope if they do give her chemo and how much time she might have left.. is chemo worth it? I know I am asking impossible questions but desperate to know :(
