Answer: Throbbing, Sharp, Aching, Cramping, Tingling, Crawling

Explanation: Adenocarcinomas are types of cancers that start in mucus producing glands. The pancreas produces hormones and enzymes that help to digest food. About 85% of pancreatic cancers are caused by adenocarcinoma. These tumors starts in the ducts of the pancreas.

Pain is a symptom that can't be ruled out when we are talking about adenocarcinoma. The pain is usually as a result of the tumors pressing on the bones, nerves or other organs in the body. Since the pancreas is a soft tissue, damage to it may cause "throbbing", "sharp" or "cramping" pains. The tumor may also produce chemicals which may damage the nerves and cause "burning", "tingling", "crawling" pains. The tumorcould also press on the nerves causing tingling and burning pains.

Also, the pain could be as a result of nerve changes due to chemotherapy treatment. In this case, the pain descriptors could be "numbing" or "tingling". The pain at the site of injection could be referred to as "burning" as a result of the burning sensation one may feel.

I'm Looking for a Proper a specific answer so don't just put a random answer from google or from you.
Rudiy27

Answer:

if I were you I would spend some time just for myself. Just focus on who you are and what you want to be or just spend some you time alone, no distractions, do what makes you happy, like when I get this way I listen to my favorite music artist. If you spend time focusing on your self you will slowly decompress. Another way to get rid of stress is to take breaks in between each homework assignment or class (if your a virtual learner). Go to your "happy place" whether its a place outside or your room. Take things one step at a time. If that doesn't work try talk to someone you trust, maybe its a parent you have a good relationship with, yell about your problems, cry, and scream (warn them about the yelling before hand) or buy a pillow for destruction, like you scream into it or hit it. I really hope this helps (sorry about the bf thing, be happy and find the light at the end of that dark road)
