Roger noticed he was losing weight and had an increase in blood sugar, but he never thought they were symptoms of pancreatic cancer. Doctors also told him, "it probably doesn't mean anything." But Roger was committed to finding out why and so he took the liquid biopsy test, called Galleri. It showed strong indicators in his bloodwork pointing to pancreatic cancer. He was sent for an MRI, which uncovered a mass on his pancreas and was diagnosed with stage 2 pancreatic cancer.
