@tomrennie it’s fairly new for pancreatic cancer. It was used for brain cancer and breast cancer first. It’s a device I’ll wear around my waist for like 12 hours a day. (Like I’ll use when sleeping or just hanging home. It stops cancer cells from spreading and kills only the cancer cells not the good cells. It’s not a cure per se but also will help with pain. And I’ll be doing maintance chemo pills a low dose since folinex messed me up. So who knows maybe the tumor will shrink over time.
