About to start taking everolinus any info or advice thanks

Hi  and welcome to the Online Community, although I am so sorry to see the circumstance that brought you here and so sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with Pancreatic and secondary liver cancer

I am Mike Thehighlander and I help out on the Community and I will do my best to direct you to the best place for you to find the support and help you need. On my long journey I found the best way to navigate the various challenges that a cancer diagnosis brings was by talking with people who are on the same journey.

My cancer journey was rather different but if you follow this LINK to our Pancreatic Cancer Forum and this LINK to our Secondary Liver Cancer Forum you will be able to connect with people who understand the journey you are on.

Just join the groups and hit the 'Start a Discussion' tab and introduce yourself to the group and remember to go to the right on the group home page and select how you want to receive email notifications when someone answers your posts.

You may also find our various Macmillan Support Line Services on 0808 808 00 00 to be helpful as you can talk to a friendly person that can help in lots of ways.

When you have the time it would be helpful if you could put some information about yourself and the journey that brought you to the Community into your profile as it really does help the Community members to help you and get to know you. 

Click on your username and that will take you to your homepage. Look for ‘Edit my Profile’ click on it and start to tell us as much or as little about yourself as you want then click on save before closing the page. 

All the best. 

Hi and a second welcome to the online community

I see that Mike has already given you links to the pancreatic cancer and secondary liver cancer groups where I'm sure you'll get lots of support.

As you were asking for information about everolimus I have found this information for you that Macmillan have produced. It tells you how and when it's used along with the possible side effects. Hopefully people in the groups Mike has suggested will be able to give you their experiences with it.
