Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Peng Xiaodong
Precancerous stages of pancreatic cancer often present symptoms such as indigestion and weight loss. Pancreatic cancer can disrupt insulin secretion, leading patients to experience abnormal blood sugar levels, including either elevated or decreased glucose. Since pancreatic cancer is a malignant tumor, once diagnosed, prompt and active treatment is essential to control disease progression and metastasis, thereby improving the patient's quality of life.
