You are on the right track by finding NET specialist! Relax, and give him your support! My oncologist said we " treat it as a chronic disease"! Had " debulking surgery" Feb.1, 2023.
Mine is a well differentiated pNET Grade 2, Stage 4 ( liver metastases). Have been on Lanreotide since March'23. And Creon. Keep up the faith! This is not a death sentence! Hugs!🦓💜
Just take a deep breath. It can be a long process. I have a metastatic Pnet primarily to the liver. My scans have shown it from my skull to my tibia. Consequently, I have been only on chemo since 9/1/22. Surgery is not an option. Eventually things shrunk and stabilized. That is working for me, so I am staying the course.
