Guest guest Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 I used to wonder why I kept having pancreatitis attacks after an initial surgery to solve the problem..(a precancerous polyp blocking the papilla Vater) as once this was removed, all enzymes were flowing freely. I thought to myself I don't need to be a stronger person, I've been through enough medical wise that I am very strong indeed, but when they cut me open to do a whipple earlier this year, they found many tumours and were unable to do the whipple. I now believe that this is why I was given further attacks of pancreatitis. Although causing pain for me, it made me push doctors to cut me open and take a look inside, thus finding a more serious problem waiting to happen. Now my mission in life is to get these tumours added to insurance cancer policies...which is another long story *LOL* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
