Hi. I’m Lynn. I don’t have a Pancreatic Cancer diagnosis at this moment but almost everyone in my maternal line going back that I am aware of died of this cancer. Reading the messages you all have submitted makes me hopeful and less anxious. I have already had endometrial cancer and been treated for it, so I have some experience with cancer. But pancreatic cancer is different and makes me more anxious.

Early detection clinics are beginning to appear. There is not a “take home” early detection packet but you will certainly qualify at a clinic to be carefully surveilled. They will offer genetic testing and molecular testing to determine if you have mutations. I would strongly suggest you enroll in one of these. Stage 1 and 1B patients most often have very good survival statistics!!
