Hi so I was diagnosed in March with stage 4 pancreatic cancer after basically having heartburn that wouldn't go away.
I've just finished my 2nd round of treatment and finding I get extremely tired. I have also found it quite hard to get my head round it all particularly attending all the appointments I sometimes feel I'm never away from the hospital.
Everyone is affected differently, i was diagnosed in May with pancreas and liver and initially felt the whole change of circumstances, planning, reading up about it all very exhausting, i go for my second chemo tomorrow and am far better prepared, i go walking when i can which helps keep my mood and morale good and on days when i'm really tired i rest up. Hope things improve for you
