Just starting my journey. I live in Atlanta, GA. Currently being seen at Emory Winship Cancer Institute. Anyone have experience with Winship or have recommendations for the Atlanta area for treatment.
I have a 15mm lesion on the pancreas head with 6mm duct dilation. Having some abdominal pain and new onset of type 2 diabetes. Scheduled for EUS with fine needle aspiration next week. Lesion identified on 11/28 by CT Scan. 12/5 CA 19-9 : 236. Feeling Positive

I’m sorry for your diagnosis. I’m in Minnesota. Just wanted to welcome you to the group. Lots of knowledgeable people here if you have questions. Best luck.

Dr. Eddie Abdallah at https://atlantaliverandpancreas.com/ is very well respected in your area.
