My wife's first sign of pancan was back pain located behind lower left back ribs. Your back pain needs to be checked quickly.

My mom has newly dx pancreatic cancer. She does describe back pain but attributes it to so many other causes. When I asked her where it is and to describe it she points to her back kind of above the "love handles" area and states its "more of a muscular pain".

How would you describe yours?

FYI - she is a 2x breast cancer survivor and has gotten a CT Abd/Pelv and thorax so not necessarily thinking this is bone mets, but I am curious what you experience.

Thanks in advance and best of luck to you and your wife.
