Guest guest Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 That is a lot to take in at one time. Maybe you should suggest a second opinion. I dont know your history but to go from having a stent placed in ercp to a total pancreactomy is a huge jump. Good luck and I will keep you in my thoughts.

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 What is wrong with delaying the inevitable? I would ask them that. I would think that it is reasonable for you to request a procedure that will give you time to seek a second opinion and to make a more rational decision without pressure over time. Unless this is a true emergency, I do not think is it unreasonable to ask for a new stent attempt to buy you time. However, if this is an emergency, then you do what you have to do to save your life. This is a scary situation and I wish you the best! Laurie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
