Need more info: What you described suggest an allergy or drug side effect. What medications are you taking? Swelling of tongue is not related to pancreatic cancer. Visit this site for info on this topic: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pancreatic-cancer/symptoms-causes/syc-20355421

Low b12: It sounds like you may have a problem absorbing B12. It can be a problem in the stomach or intestines. You can ask your doctor to check you for problems with intrinsic factor, or antibodies which causee problems with B12 absorption
