Hi , I hipe
everyone is well .
my father (79) had the whipple surgery in may of 2019 and the. Six months chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer , luckily caught early in stage 1 . His life after the whipple has been quite challenging and he certainly isn't as fit as he used to be now . Everything that I I've been reading about his overall general symptoms seems to be fairly normal and he only has had occasional pain .
he recently had a scan ( after his bloods showed normal ) as he had occasional abdominal pain and he found out he had slight inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis )
where the stent was initially put in . It isn't a tumour but they are going to keep an eye on it incase it is the beginnings of one and today they said they will wait and see how it is in six months time . I was just wondering if anyone else has had this experience ? And if it's something to worry about . I feel mixed about it but I am glad that it isn't a tumour or advanced cancer .
