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.

@Thushan711 Hi! I came across your post, and my father is planning to do a Whipple surgery in Sri Lanka. How was your experience there? -

Hello Coelio How are you doing? Your pancreatic cancer symptoms sound worrying but so many symptoms seem to mimic pc! Nevertheless, your symptoms need a proper diagnosis and treatment. I hope your GP is offering everything they can towards this. xx -

I’ve been using https://releaf.co.uk/education/cannabis-101/administration/oil/a-comprehensive-guide-on-how-to-take-thc-oilthc oil alongside my dad’s palliative care, and while it doesn’t stop the disease, it’s helped him sleep better and eased some of the nausea. We started with very low doses and slowly built up while keeping in touch with his nurses to make sure nothing clashed with his meds. -

Hi, I recently had a CT scan because I have a lot of pancreatic cancer symptoms: Lost 6kg in 2 months Back pain upper/middle back on the left Nausea Diarrhea GERD symptoms Problem to sleep CT was clear for pancreas but found to micro cyst in the liver. Could it be metastasis ? I know sometimes CT miss pancreatic tumors. Thank you -

Hello, I'm a 30-year-old woman, and I'm sorry to ask my question on this forum, but I need a second opinion. I've been having yellow and light brown diarrhoea for three weeks and for just over a week I've had severe back pain (middle/upper back, central and left) and I sometimes have pain under the solar plexus and the left ribs. Sometimes I feel nauseous. I've had a general abdominal scan three weeks ago and an ultrasound, both of which are normal. I'd like to have an MRI to make sure I don't miss any lesions/tumours, but my doctor doesn't see the point. Do you think I should insist? -

In the absence of any replies, I'll share my experience in case it's of any use to anyone. The neuropathy and fatigue took a long time to go completely - about nine months - but go they did, and now (14 months post-end of treatment) I'm fit, working and happy. There can be light at the end of that tunnel, in case anyone's reading. -
