Thanks Perna

Another good site. I have many bookmarked since I was diagnosed and went through exhaustive testing for cancer.
Luckily there was no cancer.

The surgery to remove the head of the pancreas which was blocked works for many but hasn't for me.

She said as long as I have a pancreas it can become inflamed. Makes sense but I didn't realize it. I had been feeling just like I used to when I was sick with it and I thought "It can't be!" but it can after all.

I haven't been using Creon (enzymes) but will begin those now.

This week I have been scoped and CAT scanned (no cat found.. hehe) and will have (another) MRCP next.

The treatment is to not eat for a few days. I feel better if I don't eat so that's not hard to do.

I just thought this was behind me.
