Pancreatic Cancer

Hi, I was diagnosed 8 weeks prior to Christmas 2012 with Pancreatic cancer which has metastasized to the liver. Stage 4, so no surgery. Have started on Clinical trial, have had two Gemcetebine treatments. So far the only symptom of the cancer was jaundice which has been corrected with a stent, I am still pain free and have little side effects from the chemo though I have some clotting around original treatment site so have to have 4 weeks of daily injection of a blood thinner. I wake up each morning wondering if this will be the day that I start having symptoms. Has anyone else had a diagnosis like mine with a prognosis of months not years and yet still not experience symptoms? Aisiebarb
