That's exactly what happened to my friend's father. He had been complaining about lower back pain for many months and going to physio for it. During a family re-union during Christmas, he had to be hospitalized and got diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. One week later, he died.

How generic these symptoms are! I always wonder if medical science has really attempted to study these diseases to understand their unique symptoms.

I lost my dad at age 62 last year to AML. His generic symptom was weakness.
