I was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. I’ve been seeing a functional doctor for treatment. My CA19-9 number has been coming down. But I suddenly developed shakiness and twitches and loss of appetite. I’m taking creon but it doesn’t seem to help so now I’m losing a pound per day. I’ve an appointment with a GI, but I have to wait to see a neurologist. Any suggestions? Thank you.

What is SOT?
I got twitches when I was on the gem-abraxane chemo. Now I’m just on gem due to an onset of neuropathy. I’ve only had 1 treatment like this so I don’t know if the twitches was just due to the abraxane; my guess would be yes. I get shakiness with low blood sugar and need to consume some sugar. Check your blood sugar when shakiness occurs in order to rule this out. I agree with gracect to stick with treatments based on clinical studies with successful outcomes delivered through an oncologist as time is of the essence. Wishing you good wishes on your journey.
