Symptoms of pancreatic cancer are common and can be caused by lots of things.

It’s important to be checked by a GP if things don’t feel normal for you, or if any symptoms change or get worse.

If your symptoms are caused by cancer, finding it earlier may make it easier to treat.

Did you know?
An estimated 1.3 billion people experience significant disability. This represents 16% of the world’s population, or 1 in 6 of us.
Some persons with disabilities die up to 20 years earlier than those without disabilities.
Persons with disabilities have twice the risk of developing conditions such as depression, asthma, diabetes, stroke, obesity or poor oral health.
Health inequities arise from unfair conditions faced by persons with disabilities, including stigma, discrimination, poverty, exclusion from education and employment, and barriers faced in the health system itself.

Do not be a statistic - if there is anything we can do to be cater for you or manage your health better please let us know!!
