Hola me diagnosticaron cáncer de páncreas en mayo del 2023 en estadio IV con metástasis en la pared del estómago, cómo el tumor obstruyo el dueno ya no pude alimentarme y de 81 Kilos baje a 50 kilos, me operaron para poder unirme el estómago con el yuyeno y poder alimentarme, no pudieron quitar el tumor del páncreas porque estaban comprometidas la vena orta y otra. Posteriormente me dieron quimioterapia, ya llevo dos años en el proceso.

Welcome, Omar! My Spanish is limited, but I was able to read and understand your message without the automatic translator because my case was very similar. I could not eat, and lost 10 kg (from 70 kg to 60 kg).
My duodenum (duodeno) was removed during the Whipple surgery. The surgeons have placed two stents to open my stomach outlet through the jejunum (yeyuno). I can now eat a limited diet by mouth, but still receive parentaral nutrition via a feeding tube in my chest.
How are you doing now, after two years of chemotherapy?
Hola, siento mucho lo de tu cáncer. Has podido comer después de tu cirugía ? Como va la chemotherapia? A mi esposo le hacen esa cirugía el martes y luego comienza chemo. Cualquier consejo que pudieras darme te lo agradecería

Hopefully the tumor will shrink so that it can be removed. Meanwhile, be sure to receive second opinions even if they are virtual telephone calls
You want opinions from very high volume facilities.
