Hi,my name is Julie 62 years, from Australia, I have been finding your site more interesting than the Australian sites, so I thought I would post my story on here.
I was diagnosed with PC in March 2025 after a CT for another completely unrelated pain, a 33mm adenocarcinoma tumor was found in the body of the pancreas, I was operated on 3 weeks later for a distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy, in hospital for 6 days. I then started the familiar 12 rounds of chemotherapy with folfirinox fortnightly in June 25 ,with dose reductions due to reactions from some of the drugs, I had my last round this week and am feeling more anxious and upset now than I feel when I was first diagnosed, will have scans and bloods done and see the surgeon in December 25 with results. I am now a diabetic, type 3 and am taking enzymes for digestion. I cannot say it has been the most pleasant journey but I am now on the other side and hoping and praying this horrible disease is gone, for now 🤞
