Pancreatic Cancer Group: Introduce yourself and connect with others

@tomrennie My husband was diagnosed in March 2026 (after months of tests and scopes,etc. that were inconclusive) with pancreatic adenocarcinoma with spread to adjacent lymph nodes. He also has an obstructing mass in his duodenum which required placement of a stent. He began chemo in the hospital a month ago, and has just completed his third infusion. We are hoping the tumors can be shrunk enough to allow surgery, but at this point it’s doubtful. We are anxious for results of the first scan to check progress. But that’s still a ways off.

@cjcurtis @jimcaskowski It can be really difficult plugging along with challenging treatment, when you don't know if it is working. We all wish there was a magic pill to make the cancer go away without any pain. Unfortunately, I don't know of one. Personally, I a very thankful for the folks here. Some have been at this a shockingly long period of time. I am amazed at how they continue to fight though so many challenges. You will hear little tricks of the trade that they have learned from their treatment experiences that hopefully help. How are things for you folks today?
