Merhaba ben mehtap Türkiye'den yazıyorum. Anneme pankreas ca teşhisi 2 ay önce konuldu, karaciğer metastaz olduğu için ameliyat olamadı, 3.kemoterapiyi alıyor şuanda, gemsitabin ve kapesitabin kullanılıyor, folfinox kemoterapi verilemedi çünkü yaşı 73 ve bunu kaldıramaz dedi doktorlar.
Bu ilaçlar da yan etki olarak çarpıntı, bacaklarda uyuşukluk, halsizlik yapıyor.
Başka tedavi seçenekleri deneyen ve sonuç alabilen var mı acaba.
Ağrıları için de sinir blokajı yapıldı.
Ağrıları çok daha azaldı.

Hi @mehtapdanisir, welcome. I used Google translate to translate your message from Turkish to English.
"Hello, I am Mehtap, writing from Turkey. My mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer 2 months ago, she could not undergo surgery because she had liver metastasis, she is currently receiving her 3rd chemotherapy, gemcitabine and capecitabine are being used, folfinox chemotherapy could not be given because she is 73 years old and she cannot handle it, the doctors said.
These medications also cause palpitations, numbness in the legs, and weakness as side effects.
I wonder if anyone has tried other treatment options and got results.
Nerve blockade was also performed for pain.
Their pain has decreased much more."
