Total Pancreatectomy: What can I expect?

Posted by mcantr @mcantr, Dec 26, 2018

I am searching for a forum or support group for people who have had a total pancreatectomy. I have a family member who had one several years ago and feel that it would be helpful if he had a way to search for the experiences of others who have had the same procedure.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Digestive Health Support Group.

Oh my, you have had an ongoing battle with your body and your life and yet you are kind enough to respond to this request with articulate truth! I admire you for your tenacity and clear eyed evaluation of your situation.
I am sending out positive thoughts (and prayers!) in your direction for less pain and for
research to finally solve the immune suppressants issue. Blessings, my invisible friend.

Good Morning from humid NJ! People ask me how I have made it this far and not just went on hospice/palliative care. My answer is because of people like yourself to see my unfortunate hand in life but still somehow maintain some composure and always try to still put others first. It's just in my nature. Your words mean SO much to me. My prayers to you and all your loved ones. If you or anyone you know needs any help at all, I would be glad to lend a hand! 🙏
