What are the early symptoms of pancreatic cancer?

At first you may have no symptoms. When the cancer is large enough to cause symptoms it has usually grown outside the pancreas. The symptoms depend on the cancers location within the pancreas. If it is in the head of the pancreas they symptoms will be weight loss, jaundice, and abdominal pain. Cancer in the body or the tail of the pancreas will cause abdominal pain and weight loss. There will eventually be more digestive system complaints such as abdominal pain bloating, satiety or a feeling of fullness, nausea, diarrhea, pale-colored stools. As it grows and spreads the cancer affects the whole body, with malaise and loss of appetite, elevated blood sugars. Jaundice will occur when the cancer blocks the bile duct. Finally there may be a general itch to the skin.

Can someone survive if diagnosed with pancreatic cancer?

If pancreatic cancer is in an early stage, that is, confined to the pancreas and not spread to local lymph nodes or the liver, there is a chance that surgery will remove all the cancer. Unfortunately most pancreatic cancers are not detected at an early enough stage for surgery to be effective. In that case radiation or chemotherapy might be used, but generally these are not as effective and don't institute a cure.
