Have had PRRT as well as distal pancreatectomy, but my tumors were quite visible. I can say that the PRRT had very few side effects, and I was functioning almost as well as before the disease. Had 4 sessions, would have preferred 6 or even 8, as the lanreotide didn't stop my progression either.
Surgery was open incision, went pretty well. They did RFA liver ablation as well as remove the spleen and gallbladder. No food for a couple days, was walking a little within a day or two, don't remember too much as I slept a lot. Was discharged about a week later. Recovery was good though there is still some stiffness in the abdomen.
