The symptoms depend on the type of tumor and the hormone produced.

You can do a web search on "signs and symptoms of pancreatic tumors" and read through the sites.

The early stage of pancreatic cancer often has no symptoms. there may be some pain on the left side of the abdomen which radiates to the back. Jaundice, loss of appetite, weight loss may also occur. Unfortunately most cases are diagnosed in the later stages of the disease when the cancer is more advanced.
