Sylvia George was first diagnosed with advanced localized pancreatic cancer in May of 2017. It started when she went to see her GP for back pain that wouldn’t let up. After a CT scan found a spot on her pancreas, Sylvia was quickly sent for a biopsy that confirmed her diagnosis. Here, Sylvia took a few moments to share her experience on Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Day. Learn more: http://columbiasurgery.org/pancreas
