Description

The Pancreatic Cancer Support Group meets monthly, on the fourth Tuesday of each month from 12:00 noon to 1:30 p.m. Arizona time (find your time zone).

The GI Oncology Team at Mayo Clinic Arizona offers this monthly Pancreatic Cancer Support Group. We are dedicated to addressing needs related to diagnosis, treatment, the emotional side of cancer and other challenges individuals and their families may face. The goal of the group is to provide education, hope and to meet and support others who are living with Pancreatic Cancer.

A cancer diagnosis may be stressful and scary.  Talking to someone in a similar situation may be helpful.

Where is the bestplace to have my cancer treated ?

I just had an EUS scope with biopsy (which I don't have the results yet) and the Dr said I am questionable for the Whipple Procedure. I have several cysts on my pancreas and he questions if I need surgery. He wants me to have another EUS in 6 months and if that is bad or questionable, surgery will be the answer. He wants me to go to a surgeon in Birmingham Alabama. Has anyone had surgery there. I don't know the name but it is a private hospital but world renown.
