hi everyone
I was very hesitant to join chat forums but I finally decided to join this as this is a major change to my life. I wanted to say hello and that at the moment I am doing ok and dealing with it quite well so I'm told by friends and family well what's the point of going round feeling sorry for myself I have it and so I am getting treatment for it. obviously pancreas cancer is not curable so I believe . it has also given me diabetes type 1 ( insulin ) which I kinda managing so to deal with both at the same time is hard but I'm getting there.
I must say a big shout out to the hospital I have had so far 3 endoscopy's 1 ct scan 1 mri scan , 1 pet scan in a very quick time space and when the cancer was confirmed treatment wasn't long after ( chemo ).
I believe they will Re scan me after the 6th session of chemo to see if the tumour has reduced enough to operate my tumour is at the head of the pancreas , I am not looking forward to any operation it scares the hell outta me Neva been sick like this in my life as in being in hospital as a patient more visitor. I know I will have an arranged appointment with the surgeon to discuss the procedure etc...which will put me at ease a bit.
take care all
I'll wait for any replies
