im new to this forum, having had my whipples 9 weeks ago. Just started chemo yesterday and was lucky to be accepted for a "double dose" trial with iv and tablets I take at home. My main issue has been with pain/nausea/fatigue after eating, to the point that it didnt feel like eating was worth the effort. Am a bit disappointed I had to broach the subject of creon enzyme tabs with my consultant who was surprised I hadnt been given them already! Would be interested in hearing other people's experience of these tabs and whether I can expect good results as it does get me down sometimes...

Wow smiler....way to go!!! I wasn't given creon either,but once I started taking them..they helped heaps. I'm 5and half yrs past being given 6wks to live,,,will see you on start line for city to surf this year Try eating pasta...honestly does work
