My husband has pancreatic cancer & pre op it was 800. Currently undergoing the strongest chemotherapy. However, it has risen from 60 to 102 in the last 15 weeks. Just want some honest answers what this really means. 

  • Hi and welcome to the online community

    As you know the online community is divided up into different support groups and I can see that you've already joined the pancreatic cancer group which is a great place to ask questions, share experiences and get support.

    When you're ready to post there just click on the link I've created which will take you straight there. You can then introduce yourself and post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'. 

    It would be great if you could pop something about your husband's diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.

    If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help
