A member asked:

Have had slight pain in upper left abdomen area under left rib cage and slightly tight chest on and off for a few years now scared it might be pancreatic cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: If you have had the symptoms for a few years, it is highly unlikely that it is due to pancreatic cancer. It would be prudent to see your doctor and discuss if you may be depressed. Counter-intuitive as it may seem, exercise may help. Start with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity as tolerated. Wish you good health!
