Hello 

does anyone here have experience of duodenum stage 4 inoperable cancer? My mum was diagnosed last week after initially being told she had pancreatic cancer. Her cancer has spread to her stomach lining but my understanding is no where else. We are meeting the oncologist next week and I'm trying to make sure I am as prepared as possible. Out CNS and doctors who diagnosed her haven't given us any hope and have strongly indicated we should weigh up the benefits of treatment - it sort of feels like they are already writing her off but maybe I am just being sensitive. Any advice, stories or tips would be great. Mum had a duodenum stent fitted last week so she is feeling sick constantly and has a little appetite but we have no got ensure drinks and pro cal shots prescribed for her.
