ongoing pain 1+ years post-whipple

11 months after surgery I am still loosing weight and my pain level has increased. My scans and blood work looks good, but they can’t explain the weight lost and pain? I am starting to get weaker and doing less. I have gone from 205 to 124 lbs in one year and I wasn’t over weight. Good Luck

My CT Scan didn’t show the issues I had. The only thing it showed the doctor was a fistula and the was determined it wasn’t a pancreatic fistula. When they finally did surgery 15 months later, the doctor found multiple issues from my Whipple surgery. Pancreas revision, small intestines twisted and fused, etc. This would never have been repaired if I hadn’t been very persistent for those 15 months.
