Hi, @ericawiersfischer. I moved your post related to
total distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy here so you could talk to others who've chatted about pancreatectomy, etc. Please meet @tls @ahtaylor @marvinjsturing @steve_b @huilim @hopeful33250. Hoping they have suggestions of questions you should ask, and information about any complications they experienced and what your digestive health will look like going forward.

When is your surgery, ericawiersfischer? How are you feeling about it as the surgery approaches?

Surgery is end of August and I am feeling good about having this done as all other treatments have not been successful and I have been getting acute on chronic pancreatitis every 2-3 months with hospitalizations up to 5 days at a time. I am hoping this will be an end to Hotel Mayo visits.
