Hello, Russ, this is the first time I have used this. I had surgery in May and about 40% of my pancrease (tail) and my spleen were removed. It was a small non agressive tumor so I decided to try other alternative things before chemo/radiation. My markers are going up and PET scan indicates cancer cells at site of surgery so I am going to start 4 weeks of 5FU and radiation. You mentioned it was devastating and wonder what you meant by that. Did you take anything to offset side effects? Were you able to eat? I am 56 and in basically good health. This is still stage I pancreatic cancer and I am hoping to beat the odds and have many years of living.
I am also doing hynotherapy, naturopathic care and am thinking of accupuncture. So would like to know if you incorporated anything else into your recovery. Thanks Diane
