It's been a year long journey of symptoms such as extreme fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, chills, gi issues, shortness of breath and dizziness, among things. I also developed a large mass that appears to be located on or around the pancreas but the imaging so far has been inconclusive. I have been dismissed by most of the
doctors I have seen in my town so that's why my PCP referred me up to a larger hospital in another city. The surgeon there performed a laparoscopy and removed one of the enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes for biopsy. I have a follow-up scheduled for this Thursday but the results of the biopsy came back last Monday. I'm hoping that during this time he is ordering additional pathology tests on it based on the initial results but I feel left in the dark and it's horrible. I have a strong medical background so I know what all these tests are for but so far I don't have a definite diagnosis.
