Every week after undergoing surgical treatment to get a mystery illness, the National Enquirer reports (through PopCrunch) that famed singer Aretha Franklin has incurable pancreatic cancer.

The surgical treatment, labeled successful, came under mysterious circumstances. It is the primary time this illness continues to be noted. In November, she canceled all concerts by way of May 2011 because of “medical reasons.”

The Enquirer’s report lists pancreatic survival rates at 5-10%, as well as reduced for somebody of Franklin’s age and fat.

Pancreatic Cancer Symptoms

[ad#post_menu]According to CancerHelp.Org.Uk, The most common type of cancer of the pancreas are exocrine tumours. The symptoms can be quite vague. And they vary depending on where the cancer is in your pancreas – in the head, body or tail. Early symptoms can include weight loss, pain in the stomach area, back pain and jaundice.

More than half of patients have jaundice when they first go to their doctor. Jaundice without pain is the most common reason for first going to the doctor in patients who have pancreatic cancer that can be removed with surgery. Symptoms of jaundice can include yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes, severe itching, darkened urine, and pale coloured stools (bowel motions).
