Just made it home. This doctor came in the hospital as I was leaving and is the surgical contact that his associate was talking to me about surgery. Dr Ali Ahmad, Wichita KS. He said I was a classic case of pancreatic cancer, and the mass was firm, and I needed surgery right away. He does the Whipple surgery and has done many of them and wants to go ahead and right away. He said there is no need to wait for a biopsy result. I most likely will call tomorrow and schedule this. I need to find out more about the surgery and the recovery. I would guess then that Chemo would be after that when they have the mass to check and match to a Chemo treatment.

I have an appointment next Thursday the 13th to talk to the doctor some more. He wants to talk more to me before scheduling the surgery.
