Terrified I have pancreatic cancer
Pancreatic Cancer | Last Active: Feb 8, 2023 | Replies (40)Comment receiving replies
Hello I got a CT and it shows I have polysplenia. Which is a rare birth disorder but on the way to the hospital I fell and broke my ankle. Now I am very worried because this back pain won’t go away not I have all this shoulder pain and coughing up mucus and wheezing. I’m just scared there’s something wrong and they aren’t finding anything. Will a chest x ray show cancer in the lungs. Will a Ct scan show cancer in the pancreas. I don’t know what to do there’s something wrong.

You seem very concerned that you have some sort of cancer, be it pancreatic or lung. I'm sorry you are suffering from what appears to be some very serious anxiety. Have you considered getting help for anxiety? I am not dismissing your health concerns. I know you have polysplenia and a broken ankle--these things are real. But, if you have had a CT and it was normal, please try not to worry. They most likely would have found a tumor through the CT. If you are still unsure, push for a PET scan. Then, trust you are okay. If you do not trust your health care providers, switch providers. Anxiety is a real issue with devastating effects. I hope you will consider getting some help for it. Hope you heal quickly!

I’m not sure with those questions but the ct scan did show cancer for my sister in law.
I’m sorry you fell too on top of what you’re going through.
Please ask for mri and seek proper care from doctors.
