I'm approaching 6 years of surviving pancreatic cancer. I had my Whipple procedure at John Hopkins by Dr Wolfgang. He did save my life. However my husband was very supportive during this whole process but I am on my own now
Hello Mia I’m glad your doing well . My mother was diagnosed as pancreatic cancer type of aggressive one . After hard time and waiting over 2 months for John Hopkins appointment , we going to see doctor on next couple days . I hope that I can use your experience to help my mother which she is my everything . God bless you and your family 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I had whipple surgery in April of this year. I had 3 tumors on my pancreas. I was scared to death when I read and researched the type of surgery they wanted to do on me. I had the surgery and I'm doing great. It turned out that it was pre-cancerous. Thank God! It was a rough surgery, but I can eat just about anything I want and do most of what I could do before the surgery. I do tire easily, but that is to be expected. I thank God every day for my life and the incredible doctor who helped save my life.
My heart goes for everyone have that disease , my sister in a very short time without any warming have been diagnosed with stage 4 and having chemotherapy now and also Dr said she have one to 2years ,but she struggle , my prayers gos for everyone God bless
Thank you for the hope. I had the Whipple done two years ago. And then chemo for 10 months. It all sucks. My belly is hurting this morning. But it is not every day. I had staged 3 now it 4 it is in my lungs. The hardest thing to deal with is my kids 2 and 5 growing up without there father. I was lucky to have the couple extra years with them. Thank you doctor Snyder
You are the type of person that every person who has gone through or is going through cancer or has had a Whipple operation needs to listen to. I found your attitude very motivating. Thank you because your advice is really the way to continue living after it all.
Hi. I am really really hoping that you are well and happy. Just read your comments about your surgery. I have been reading a lot about pancreatic cancer and it takes my heart away to read a story as yours. Please let me know that you are alive and well. Loads prayers for you
My mom has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She did 2 rounds of chemo so far (2 more to go before surgery, we hope)... it’s a tough one. This gives me hope thank you
@@leonardobruce929 she is still there, she stopped chemo after 5 rounds, because she was sick of it, cancer is still there, no possible surgery because the tumor has not shrunk… we want her to start chemo again but she refuses to… post of the Time she is doing ok. Some days she is in terrible pain
I would say that the best preventative thing one could do is to ask (demand if need be) to have the pancreas scanned especially if having common gallbladder surgery as part of the over-all workup. I had my gallbladder removed in 2016 and they found a cyst on my pancreas with the workup. They followed the cyst with MRIs and after 7 years major changes developed with a "lesion" growing near or on the cyst and the pancreatic duct was dilating from the new obstruction and the tail of the pancreas was atrophying - all ominous signs for a future disaster. Had distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy, home after 4 grueling hospital days and pathology of tissues and lymph nodes was negative for malignancy. I'm lucky because as a health-care professional I knew the questions to ask. Remember, pancreatic cancer can go from Stage 1 to Stage 4 in ONE YEAR ! Be proactive. Much love to all !
@@timothygibson2056 You are absolutely right! I found an article that said we can live 25 to 30 years with this! Malnutrition is our worst enemy! Lots of meds ( I have to have metachlormide to activate my stomach) and plant enzymes from healthfood store! DIGEST GOLD!
Dear Anne,my husband was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in early March. He has the same tumour as you had and is currently undergoing chemo. He’s nearing the end of his first 3 months cycle which ends in mid June and then we will know more after he has his PET scan. I sencerly hope that it has shrunk so he can have the same surgery as you have. Wish us luck as you gave us hope. Best wishes from UK.
How did it go Kristina? My brother in law has been diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer as well, He starts the Chemo on Friday and then he will have a PET scan to see if the tumour has shrunk. I hope that your husband is well now.
@@letswinpc Thank you so much for your reply, he is scheduled for his second chemotherapy tomorrow morning. In January he will then have a PET scan to find out if the tumour has shrunk. Is there any special diet he should be following? I do understand that there are many cancer survivors who have been cancer free after following a vegan, dairy and meat free diet. They have been taking lots of wheatgrass juice and other green juices as well .
@@arymhansie Great news. We recommend always speaking to a dietitian or nutritionist specializing in oncology to help create the best plan! Every patient is different, as are their nutritional needs.
Anne, thank you so much for encouraging us with this positive message. My husband was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in Dec 2021. He has remained absolutely positive. For me, I am SECRETLY scared. Your story helped me so much. 💜🎗❤
Hi, I hope your husband is well and kicking. My mum is also suffering from pancreatic cancer and she's doing chemotherapy treatment. Can you please tell me what kind of chemotherapy did your husband take?
Same here with my mother she diagnosed with tumor 2cm pancreatic cancer and now it’s more then 4cm because of rejecting her insurance and canceling and push backed her appointment ( I’m not sure even if it’s legal to do that with us citizens). terrible with you here that for first time
I lost my mother to pancreatic cancer it hurts four years ago and it’s even worse when people are trying to help me get over the fact when they’ll bring it up or suggest something like moving on or someone trying to replace her because that’s how it feels people are trying to do to me because that’s the only thing that they can do is tell me to move on
God bless you. I have recently been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and undergoing chemo to shrink the tumor before the whipple procedure. But I have to ask how we're you able to work throughout chemotherapy. I do a 7 hour session every other week and im just too drained with fatigue and neusea. But I also do manual labor. Again congrats on beating it im hoping for the same outcome
My best friend has being diagnosed and he just had a second stent put in for jaundice, his very weak lying in bed everyday, he went from full of energy all his life to barely able to walk to the toilet now...im worried out of my mind, how is he going to have chemo if his only barely eating and extreme weakness
thank you for this video my wife diagnosed with stage 4 pancreas cancer lost a lot of weight oncologist has give her a 6 to 12 month chance to live i am devastated my wife does not know yet should i tell her or is there hope on the horizon this video has give some hope tumor too big to operate only chemo and radiation if she strong enough candidate for it was my oncologist answer seem just like they give no hope for her
Hieee....there m sorry about ur wife, well if you don't mind me asking like how long did find out that your wife was having pancreatitis problem before it turns to cancer?
@@Ben-cp6nb unfortunetly they were treating her for gallstones after six back and fore trips to Aand E give her a full body scan thats when they found a black mass on her pancreas and it was all too late it was stage 4 so if they scanned her on her second Aand E visit she may still be here so i would say she deterioated all in six months
I'm a 5 1\2 years survivor of stage 3 pancreatic cancer and from what I know only 4 out of 100 live longer than 5 years with stage 3 and the only thing they removed was the cancer and my Spleen

I wonder if anyone can give me some advice,I had severe pain in my upper stomach for a few years,they diagnosed gallstones and my liver blood test was really high but they thought it was connected. Had gallbladder out but I had an mri beforehand and they saw a small cyst in my pancreas. 5 months later the specialist has organised an MRCP with contrast to see if it's ok?my question is could this be something normal ?I am also starting to get the recurring pain I felt before could this be why?
Hi Pauline, Pancreatic cysts are a common finding. Here's an article that explains them in more detail: letswinpc.org/managing-pancreatic-cancer/2018/06/08/what-you-should-know-pancreatic-cysts/
I had a whipple done in October. Been dignose with pancreas cancer in Sep 2021. The hardest for me was the operation and im still having pains inside me. Sometimes i think its never going away. Was this the same for you?
My mom had whipple, she is constant pain, lost lots of weight and taste buds. I think its normal for some people to experience this. Hope you feel better soon x
Dear cristina, how are you now? I had a Whipple in Jan 2023 and 14x mFolfirinox afterwards. Needed nearly one year to recover from surgery but feel fine in this days, no pain. Do you still have problems?
University of Heidelberg / Germany did research on pancreatic cancer and brokkoli sprouts (contain Sulfuraphan), seems to fight the cancercells (in addition to chemo)... Have a look on their internet side. Best regards BL
These are success stories are great to hear about but with a five year survival rate of 5% for stage 4, it is a dismal prognosis. My mother got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in April but it had already spread to the liver. They couldn't do anything but provide chemo. She tried folfirinox. It was too much for her. She tried 2 rounds and it made her too sick. Her last oncologists said we should have just tried gem and that would have helped her live longer without too many horrible side effects. As it turned out her last scan before she died showed the cancer got bigger. The folfirinox really did nothing, but just made her sicker. Once this cancer spreads there is no hope.
You are absolutely right! survival stories are once in a billion human, I lost my mom 9 months back due to advance stage Pancreas CA.my Sr. Oncology Doctor clearly said max 3-6 months and she died in 3.
@@ducheau100 well 50 percent of whipple operation patient dont have recurrence but even if you caught it early or is able to shrink the tumor it still a coin flip between life and death and even if you become cancer free there still chance that it might resurge even a decade later once you have it you either surivive and be on guard the rest of your life or your just aiming for life extension.
@@patthonsirilim5739 that could be about right. Our oncologist at Johns Hopkins told us that 90% of the time they don't catch it till its at stage 4. So they can't operate.
