Further, some people suffer loss of appetite and weight loss, nausea and vomiting, and pain or discomfort in the upper part of the belly or abdomen. Other symptoms people experience include back pain, blood clots, diarrhea, and indigestion. People with multiple symptoms and several risk factors should consult their doctor about an examination and potential screening.

Medical Doctors Also Recommend Avoidance of Pancreatic Cancer Risks

Cancer Doctors also recommend avoiding pancreatic cancer health risks. Some common health risks include: 1) smoking, 2) excessive drinking, 3) being overweight, 4) exposure to pesticides and toxic chemicals, and 5) lack of exercise. Other potential risks include a family history of pancreatic cancer and diabetes.
