Recently diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer. I have a cancerous lump in the middle of my Pancreas. Too big for immediate surgery therefore started chemotherapy to try to shrink it. Had 2 sessions up to now.
Have been suffering with quite severe backpain which I've never had before. Anyone else had this and found a solution, other than Co-codamol or Morphine?
Many thanks, SuziC
Hi SuziC
I don't usually post in this forum because my wife's cancer is quite different but I noted your post had not been replied to. While I don't have cancer I do have a form of arthritis in my spine so I know how back pain can be really quite difficult.
There is a page here about complementary treatments for pain that some people find helpful - I hope you find something that helps you.
