Any help out there? My partner has pancreatic cancer stage 4

I’m so so sorry to read about your partner. Have you not seen an oncologist yet? Having been through the journey with my husband, I’m sure he will get very well looked after once the treatment starts x

Hi there. No we haven’t seen him yet. We are meeting with him Friday. But have already been told that there’s nothing they can do other than palliative chemo! Xx

How is your husband doing?

I can’t believe my partner (48) has gone from stage 1 to stage 4 in only a few months x

Well if it helps, my husband was diagnosed with the same and he was 80, 20 years older than me and all I can say is just focus on every day, easier said than done, I know but we just set out to keep him going as long as we could tried to be positive 15 months x

48 that is no age. I’m devastated for you both. Sadly he passed on the 15th April just gone , but was diagnosed in feb 2023. So you have to fight and fight, your mindset plays a massive part that I can tell you for sure x

Thank you so much. I’m so sorry to hear that you’ve lost your husband.

can I ask what helped most with his pain?

as we have morphine but it doesn’t seem to help much and is causing Julian problems going to the toilet. Which again is so painful for him xx

Thank you. Initially he had Morphine, but as time went on the dose was upped, and then a syringe driver was fitted. Any other questions feel free to ask x
