Pancreatic cancer recurrence: Anyone else?

Hi, I’m sorry it’s been so long, but I was super busy. I decided to sell my home and move in with my son. The house sold the first day after 19 offers, all over asking price, so that was a blessing. The buyer paid cash but allowed us the time we needed to move and I in turn was able to bless him and his family by leaving furniture and household goods, including a riding lawn mower. He was coming from South Korea and all they brought was their clothes. I later found out he was a Christian pastor and just like me, God was taking him in a different direction.
I moved in with my son on September 1st and got settled into my new home with him and my 16 yr old cat.
Everything was going well at first, but last Sunday I started running a temperature with no other symptoms. And have run a temp in the evening for the past week. I take 2 Tylenol at bedtime and temp is normal the next morning and stays that way all day until the next evening. Since there are no other symptoms and no pain, hospice has just asked me to keep track of it and I’ll know more next week. The fevers are annoying and range from 99.9 to 102. So it’s been hard to eat since the temps kill my appetite. But I’m still able to get out and do errands, go to church and meet friend for lunch. So life is still good.
I’ve accomplished most everything I wanted to get done and I know a lot of people do not have that chance.
I realize each extra day is a gift and I am making the most of them.
God has not only met my needs, but my desires also. He is so good! ❤️🙏🤗

I so appreciate your update, @sadiegrace. You have accomplished a lot. So nice that you were able to sell your house and furnishings to someone who really needed it.

I hope that as you recover from the activity of the move, that your temp will go back to normal. I'm sure you (and your cat) are enjoying being with your son. That is great that he could have you stay with him.

I, once again, appreciate your uplifting post. This just made my day!

Hello @sadiegrace

Just thinking about you. As it has been about a month ago, when you last posted about your move and the new symptom of night-time fever, I was wondering how you were doing.

I hope that the fever has abated by now and that you have a better appetite.

I would enjoy hearing from you.

I know it's been a while since you posted this but just want to say that during radiation back in June/July this year I was spiking fevers like yours. Went to the ER several times and they ran tests for blood infections etc. but couldn't find a cause. Finally the last time my fever spiked it was pretty high and I guess a light bulb went off in the surgeon's mind. They gave me a CT and discovered that my stent had formed a gallstone behind it and was no longer functioning. One ERCP and a new stent later and the fevers are gone.
