My husband has pancreatic cancer that has metastases to his splee, stomach, liver and his right thyroid node. The gemzar has failed him and the doc has given him 3-6 months. He refusing to use the cistaplatin with xelodo. Now my husband chest is swelling up on his right side. He’s saying that he’s whole chest is hurting him. I am beside myself on what to do next. He has also refused hospice. Any suggestions? Thanks

My mum was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on friday 31st october 2008. halloween day. how do i know when she is close to death? i mean within days or even hours?
its just me in the house on my own with her and i dont want it to be like that when she dies. i know she would want family with her also.
i have read stories of people being diagnosed and dying days or weeks later
i just want to know what to look out for when i know its gonna come really soon
im only 16 and i have to go to school also so im not even able to be there during the day
i have my gcses to do and social services are pretty much forcing me to be in school

I lost my Dad (just a hair short of his 80th birthday) almost three years ago to pancreatic cancer.
A few months back, I had a dream about him that I loved. He looked about 40. He was wearing the white t-shirt and jeans he used to work in (he was a gardener), he had slicked down shiny black hair, and boy did he look athletic and full of beans. He was in a catcher’s crouch, warming up a men’s fast pitch softball pitcher. As I walked by, he flicked the ball back to the pitcher like it was effortless and shot me a big ol’ grin of pearly whites.

i went to the doctor and was told i have a heart murmur ( an ekg and my doctor told me this) plus inflammation of the lining of the lungs (x-ray).she said this may be why i feel the sharp pain. also twice i remember getting up in the middle of the night with the worse chest pain ever. it was all around the chest and upper back and it lasts for a few minutes.it especially hurts when i am laying down, and when i inhale/exhale too. i am scared ’cause it sounds like a symptom of pancreatic cancer. please help me with advice.or is anyone out there going thru the same thing? thanks.
