Learning from Justice RBG's pancreatic cancer battle

[@AustinChiangMD]

Remember, Justice Ginsburg was FAR MORE than her diagnosis. Please leave your questions below, and I’ll try my best to answer.

Hey I’m 17 I don’t know what to do with my life but I looked into this and I feel I wanna do gastroenterologist I feel like is too hard but any tips?

RIP Justice Ginsburg ⚖️💔 Dr. Chiang, you are a good teacher. Thank you.

[@AustinChiangMD]

Jeanne Lambert thank you! I really appreciate it!!!

[@DL-vibes]

She is a trailblazer of our time. She fought several times with injuries and illness. I am so saddened by her passing.

Justice Ruth Bader was a hero and I hope people will lead this country using her vision. Thanks for teaching me again! As I was watching your video I was thinking about the first misconception people have that gastroenterologists only deal with gut, as you are showing the 3-D model I can see you work with many other organs and how they all are connected! I did not know many things and thanks for teaching!

[@AustinChiangMD]

Farah Faruqi thanks! yes, I work primarily with the pancreas and bile duct

@@AustinChiangMD Excellent video. On average,how many patients you have treated have survived this?

[@heatherfernanda109]

This is such an informative video! I’m a PA student who is hoping to go into GI because of my passion for this field too, specifically pancreatic and hepatobiliary diseases. You’re by far my favorite GI doc 🙌🏼

[@AwsumCherry]

Awesome video, thanks Doc! I work with GI cancer patients every day, the pancreatics break my heart. 😢

[@AustinChiangMD]

AwsumSaus thank you for your service as well!!! 🙏🙏

This is such an excellent informative video! I have an exam on the GI module this week and this video helped clear up so much! Thank you.

Thanks Dr. Chiang. I'm a gastroenterology nurse in Iowa. Very good video!

[@jd5094]

Greatly informative.... Thanks.

Thank you for your very informative video Dr. Chiang. Are you aware of any vaccines that are being developed in France against pancreatic cancer?

[@stephaniefajardo2297]

Thank you for this video! My grandma died from pancreatic cancer - it was an 18 month battle that was pretty brutal. Do we know of any preventative measures? Are there any indicators of people who are likely to get pancreatic cancer? Lastly, is there any correlation between pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer?

I thought RBG had Neuroendocrine Cancer? In one of the books on her it said she also had previous tumors in her lungs, GI trac &,Colon??Love her & what she fought for,, RIP

[@juliacostantino4659]

This may be a stupid question but what is causes the weight-loss symptom? Is it a loss of appetite or something else? I learn so much from your videos and they are something I look forward to.

[@NoodlesEaton]

I think she had the neoexocrine Pancreatic Cancer. Doctors found her Pancreatic Cancer at Stage One. She had PC for years.

Let's take a moment to reflect and be grateful for the magnificent work of senator Reed. his powerful work in making it possible for another god-fearing constitutionalist who values the life in the womb to become quickly confirmed with a simple majority following ruths unfortunate passing. in hell may she reflect upon the unborn lives she helped to slaughter
