I went from being told stage 1 to stage 4 in less than 1 month back in 2022. Given 2-3 months without treatment & one year with treatment. (This was at a prominent cancer center). Met my "local" oncologist 2 days after that prognosis & am still alive on Gemczar & Abraxane. Where are you located? That may help others help you. I live in Georgia, USA.

I too live in GA and get treatments via Wellstar. I am treated with combo gemcitabine & abraxaine. Don't have a clue if its the right chemo mix or not. Looked into Proton therapy via Emory and was told by both an oncolgist and a radiation speialist I was not a candidate. Don't know where to turn now.
