Hello, i had nodular melanoma and post surgery doctors suggested immunotherapy. A catscan found my main pancreas duct was enlarged too 1cm. I was diagnosed with IPMN and because of Opdivo infusions to keep melanoma fron returning, it was decided we would monitor the pancreas with scans. Last month I was diagnosed with early stage less than 1 cm invasive adenocarcinoma of the distal body of pancreas. In one week I will see a medical oncologist for four months of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, complete pancreatectomy, then two more months of chemotherapy.

Hello @bonniestork, so glad yours was found early -make sure drs run your pathology so you will know your mutations. Also, 2nd opinions from a center of pancreatic excellence never hurt. Best wishes and let us know of your progress.

@bonniestork, have you started neodjuvant chemo now? Are you also taking immunotherapy for the melanoma or is that on hold for now?
