High blood glucose did not help pancreatic cancer sufferers who did not receive chemotherapy.

This is a counterintuitive finding to arrive at. It’s almost like saying smoking can help cure lung cancer, under chemo.

This high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to immediately implement for your benefit.

Email me to get on either the “Common/Top Issues” (20 - 25% fewer pings) or “Everything” list.

I have a classmate at MD Anderson for pancreatic cancer. The first round of chemo really beat him up. Round 2 comes this Thursday. Hoping for the best, but also knowing that it has a poor prognosis in most cases.

Not sure - when the do a PET scan to look for tumors, they inject some radioactive sugar because the sugar “hunts out and infuses” the cancerous areas - perhaps higher glucose levels help the chemo infuse the cancer cells better.
