Hi

Since now 7 months i have left side pain more back and hypocondrium plus some episode of very bad stomach pain.

I saw 3 different doc and 1 gi and told there about my worry of pancreatic cancer.

They did blood test clean and ct scan clean and er doc did ultrason clean.

All of them said its not possible 99 to100% sure not pancreatic cancer cause my ct scan 7 month ago was clean and blood test also but im sure i have it i can put that out of my head with left side painpain.

My doctor and gi do not want to see me for that but im sure have it.

They all do not want to do another scan cause radiation even if i was crying and begging them.

All of them said if there was something its clear we saw that on ct scan and not possible to turn bad in 7 months

What can i do please help me

Thanks

Chris

    I've had left side pain for 3 years ..I'm 61 today and been told its fibro . My daughter-in-laws Mother 52 passed away on friday with pancreatic cancer. I was sure i had it but I'm still here, she had pain for less than a year. Seriously if you've had the tests then you dont have it ..go back in a few years and get it redone to keep your mind at rest xx

      Katie do you get pain after eating ?

      is the pain internal or more muscular?

      Thanks

      I get internal..but have muscular occasionally.. The more I worry the worse it gets... I try to eat little meals I find it helps but not always.. I had it so bad that sometimes I thought I'd be better off not here. I manage to control the anxiety by telling my self it's not serious and relaxing when I get pain it was hard but I'm winning slow but sure..

      Hope this helps xx

      It's highly unlikely, if you had tests done it would have shown up. I totally understand where you're comming from though. It's hard not to think the worst xx
