Letting my anxiety get the better of me

[rmilo112]

Hi everyone! I am a 27 year old female that has been struggling with constant upper stomach pain for two years now. It is a burning pain in between my ribs the center that sometimes goes to the right side. Eating makes it 100% worse and it is usually fried or greasy foods that escalate it. I have never been able to find something to make it go away completely. I tend to go back and forth between diarrhea and constipation. I have had an ultra sound done and an endoscopy that both were negative. I also had a ct scan with constast a year ago of the upper and lower abdomen that was also negative. My doctor is sending me for an endoscopy with EUS. I am worried, as of course, I googled it and the first things that come up are pancreatic cancer. I have tried everything medication wise and feel that nothing is helping. Just looking for support. No weight loss and someone on here said how pancreatic cancer pain is the last thing and that comes and I have been dealing with this for over two years now.

did you ever figure out what is wrong? 2 years is a long time if it was pancreatic you would more than likely be dead by now.

what was insensitive about the fact that pancreatic cancer patients barely live a year with treatment?

There are people living for 10 years with certain types of pancreatic cancer.neuroendocrine for one I know I have it.please don't scare monger it is very cruel and can cause unessessary suffering .just do some research .and be kind life is hard enough.God Bless Poppy Storey.
