Hello mchris327. I am sorry to hear and is understandable to be overwhelmed. I am a 10 year survivor and was fortunate to get good care right away. Sure there are challenges being in a small town so you will need to get some referrals. PanCan ( Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is a wonderful resource so maybe contact them. I am sorry you are dealing with this but there is hope. My best to you in your journey!

10 year survivor and still on the forum reaching out to others! So fantastic and I hope I can say the same someday; only 8 more years to go!

Hello @tjk and welcome to the Pancreatic Cancer support group on Mayo Connect. I appreciate you sharing your cancer journey here on Connect. It really does encourage others to hear stories of successful treatment and life after a pancreatic cancer diagnosis.

I look forward to hearing from you again. As this is your first post, would you care to share more about your journey. Such as how you found referrals and the type of treatments you have received?

Thank you for your response and support. I’m in a small town and have reached out to PanCan who gave me some great advice as well. I think I have a few good doctors in my care team and in the beginning of my journey. Again thank you for your support!
