What other symptoms does pancreatic cancer cause?
The NHS explains that pancreatic cancer doesn’t always spur on symptoms, which can make the condition hard to spot.
If symptoms do appear, they can include these problems:
- The whites of your eyes or your skin turn yellow (jaundice)
- Loss of appetite or losing weight without trying to
- Feeling tired or having no energy
- High temperature, or feeling hot or shivery
- Feeling or being sick
- Diarrhoea or constipation, or other changes in your poo
- Pain at the top part of your tummy and your back, which may feel worse when you’re eating or lying down and better when you lean forward
- Symptoms of indigestion (such as feeling bloated).
The health service urges seeing a GP if your symptoms “change, get worse or do not feel normal for you”.
