My doctors know nothing

I also love my oncologist and his team! I had a pancreatectomy and splenectomy in February of 2021 to remove a neuroendocrine tumor. I've had regular CT scans every year since and had an interesting report after my scan last year in August. There was in the report which stated the "The spleen is off a normal size and there are no splenic lesions." Because I had no spleen I was very concerned about the other results in the report. When I had my follow up with my NP she was absolutely flabbergasted when she read that and had my surgeon review the scan and assure me I remained cancer clear. They followed through with the service providing the reporting and I received an apology three months after. My latest scan last month was clear as well and I really appreciate my surgeon and his team!
