Cancer in the part of the pancreas known as the head can at first cause symptoms similar to gall bladder disease. An ultra sound of the gall bladder area or a cat scan of the upper abdomen will give the diagnosis. Unfortunately by the time pancreatic cancer becomes a cause of symptoms it is usually not curable whereas gall bladder disease is alleviated by removing the gall bladder(cholecystectomy). I hope this helps.
