      My husband was diagnosed with non operable PC stage 2 in July. He has had 3 rounds of folfirinox . After the 2nd round the dosing was reduced as he was struggling with diarrhoea and lots of pain. He now struggles more with pain after eating and emptying his bowels. The pain is intense but doesn’t last too long. We have upped his creon intake.  He is taking 90mg of MST at night plus paracetamol during the day and oramorph for breakthrough pain and this still doesn’t seem to be helping. Getting any answers from the doctors is frustrating at best.

      My health improved 100% when I stopped taking all western medicine and turned to a nutrition lifestyle by changing my eating habits and diet, I avoid prepackaged foods full of chemicals. I purchased Herbal Formula from World Rehabilitate Clinic, I was literally bedbound for about 3 years. But now I have NONE of the issues they diagnosed me with years ago....all done without the help of western medicine. I am not prescribing medicine or supplements but If anyone chose to follow the regimen I chose I will be happy for them, conversely if anyone chooses not to believe, I will fully understand that as I probably wouldn't believe the story if I hadn't lived it.

      If you have been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer that can’t be cured with surgery, you may be offered different types of treatment. But what are these treatments, and how can you prepare for them?    Whether you’ve been diagnosed yourself or are supporting a loved one, we’re here to offer information and support that’s clear and easy to understand.   Join our session to hear from some of our specialist nurses. They’ll talk about what chemotherapy and radiotherapy are, and how they are used to treat pancreatic cancer. We’ll also share practical tips on how to stay as well as possible before, during, and after treatment.     There will be time for you to ask your own questions too, and find out where you can get further support.    Sign up here https://www.pancreaticcancer.org.uk/support-for-you/webinars/treatment-for-incurable-pancreatic-cancer-19august25
