Our updated Navigating Pancreatic Cancer: A Guide for Patients & Caregivers handbook is here! Thanks to an educational grant from Celgene and support from Ipsen Pharmaceuticals, this handbook is a valuable resource and roadmap for patients and caregivers faced with a pancreatic cancer diagnosis. Part One addresses immediate needs, including a checklist for newly diagnosed patients; guidance on making treatment decisions; surgery; drug treatments; clinical trials; use of complementary and alternative methods; supportive care; coping; and caring for a loved one.
Part 2 offers background information about the disease and its causes, signs and symptoms, and diagnosis.
We hope this guide will empower patients and caregivers to ask bold questions, seek out cutting-edge treatments, and confront the unique challenges of pancreatic cancer head-on, armed with all of the knowledge needed to make informed decisions.
Bulk orders are available to professionals only. For additional copies to share with colleagues or patients, please fill in our book order form. The books are free, but we do charge $20 per carton of books for shipping and handling. Each carton contains 40 books.
At Lustgarten, we are making progress every day in our fight against pancreatic cancer. Our commitment to everyone impacted by pancreatic cancer has never been stronger, and we will continue to fund research until a cure is found. We believe it’s no longer a matter of “if” we are going to conquer this disease. It’s a matter of when.
