Has anyone had chemo-induced colitis?

Has anyone had chemo induced colitis? I had 5 treatments so far and my red blood count went down real low. Had cat scan, said tumor on pancreas shrunk but there’s tissues around it and he thinks that may be from colitis. So skipping chemo next week. Not sure what happens now

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Pancreatic Cancer Support Group.

Well unfortunately I have to do more chemo and radiation. Even tho the tumor shrunk it’s still partly wrapped around the main vessels. I don’t understand because first scan it seemed like it was barely touching the arteries and stuff. Guess it’s shrinking the wrong way. I don’t know. Depressing. Starting to not care anymore. But I’ll keep going for little longer.

@valerina30 god bless you 🙏🏼🌈💜 keep up the treatment. Sounds like you’re headed in the right direction. Sounds like they have it under control in terms of it’s not trying to move to the lymph nodes or other organs. I will certainly pray for you. 🙏🏼
