Guest guest Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Love the comment at the end of the article " Of course, Jobs may not have a metastatic islet cell tumor at all. But if his diagnosis is some other " hormonal imbalance, " his statement has left experts scratching their heads. " I was actually impressed by the obscurity of the statement, " says Semenkovich, the St. Louis specialist. " It's as if it transmitted information without transmitting any information at all " I am sure many of you have been transmitted information and said 'Whao, what on earth does that mean?!!'...grin > Lots of speculation in the news media today about his health: > > http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=99050486 > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 From Steve himself - http://mediamemo.allthingsd.com/20090105/steve-jobs-explains-his-health-problem-hormone-imbalance-predicts-recovery-by-spring-will-stay-on-as-ceo/ He’s a survivor of pancreatic cancer and has undergone successful surgery to treat a form of pancreatic cancer — an islet cell neuroendocrine tumor. One article said….. " The pancreas makes digestive enzymes, and if the pancreas doesn't make enough of those, then people can't digest foods and getting nutrients is a problem " . So I’m thinking what Jobs himself said - is probably true. Those with liver disease know all about losing weight because the body doesn’t absorb enough nutrients.
