Symptoms of intestinal metastasis of pancreatic cancer

As a typical symptom of pancreatic cancer, abdominal pain is different from other diseases. 65% ~ 80% of pancreatic cancer patients have abdominal pain, which has nothing to do with diet. At first, most of them are mild and persistent, and the pain gradually worsens, often more serious at night. In addition, supine and sitting positions can aggravate the pain, and supine or spinal extension can also make the pain obvious. The pain is often vague and difficult to explain. With the expansion of the cancer and the development of the disease, the pain site will be gradually fixed, and the degree of pain will be aggravated. When it is serious, it is difficult to fall asleep at night and normal activities during the day. Therefore, when abdominal pain is intolerable and regular, we need to be careful.

2. Different from other cancers, pancreatic cancer often has emaciation and fatigue in the early stage. This symptom has nothing to do with the location of the tumor. In digestive tract tumors, weight loss caused by pancreatic cancer is the most prominent. In a short time after the onset, weight loss can reach more than 30 jin, accompanied by weakness and other symptoms. Some patients show progressive weight loss before other symptoms appear. Therefore, when we have no weight loss plan, but inexplicably appear fast weight loss, never secretly happy

3. The initial symptoms of a small number of patients are diabetes, that is, before the main symptoms of pancreatic cancer such as abdominal pain and jaundice appear, they first suffer from diabetes, and then the accompanying weight loss and weight loss are mistaken as the manifestations of diabetes, regardless of pancreatic cancer. It can also be manifested as the recent aggravation of patients with long-term diabetes, Or the original long-term treatment measures to control the disease become ineffective, indicating that pancreatic cancer may occur on the basis of the original diabetes.
