Had an EuS after discovery cyst on my pancreas!

I had a similar situation. Because my mother died of pancreatic cancer and I had been having all kinds of GI problems, my doctor order a CA-19 test. The results showed a CA-19 high. I was prescribe an MRI and a EUS. The studies showed multiple bening cysts in my pancreas. Now, after 5 yers of MRIs, they know I have 12 cysts, no change during all this years. But they want me to have an MRI every year.

Mercedes

@mercellort
So glad your cysts have been benign all these years especially given your family history. I love your message since I’m about to have an EUS due to suspicious findings on my MRI MRCP. Gives me more hope of a benign condition. MRIs are easy. It’s just the waiting for the results that is hard. I’d rather not do an EUS because of anesthesia and being invasive so I hope I’ll just be back to MRIs after this.

Hope all stays well for you too @sivie
