Jobs had pancreatic cancer.
Nope. He had the rare cancer called endocrine cancer. His first found tumor was on his pancreas. It was cancerous, but it was NOT pancreatic cancer. I know because I have the same cancer. I did not have lung cancer. My first found tumor was on my left upper lobe. Endocrine is a systemic cancer where the metastasis can show up on the pancreas, bowels, Lungs, gall bladder, brain, and bone. It usually starts in the intestines and the primary is rarely found as it can be as small as a freckle, but secondary tumors will go to the above mentioned body parts. He had a resection of his pancreas which was successful, I had my left upper lung lobe removed. His cancer spread to his liver. My cancer spread to my liver. He went to the University of Missouri to get a new liver against medical advice and lived two years after he had the transplant. I followed the doctor instructions and now have lived two years and eight months since the disease has metastasized on the liver. Again it is a systemic disease and I am unaware of any research which shows pot helps mortality rates, but there is plenty of evidence it helps control nausea and pain which are symptoms not a cure in any regard. More research may change that......
