Hi Jessie, Thanks for asking, however, No.
I am 82 years old and even though my heart tests out to be in good condition, my Oncologist Surgeon says I am not a good enough candidate for the Whipple Procedure. He thinks that 5 hours on the table and I would not survive the procedure. While no one will come right out and say it, since that procedure is so extremely expensive my United Healthcare Ins. more than likely wouldn't cover the costs to begin with. My best bet is going to see if I can get the newly approved pills by the FDA last Monday, called Daraxonrasib which I believe is Made by Revolution Medicines, and called Rasonque. It is rumored to cost $1000.00 monthly. I heard that Chemo only extends your life an average of six months, but this new breakthrough stuff is extending it an average of thirteen months. I'd be very happy to get that. Search Fox News and others for the story.

@rdebeer wow 82 🥰 yes my surgery was like 7 hrs the recovery time is long I still have numbness under my breast and stil aches to take deep breaths I'm from Ireland I have a medical card so my hospital and gp visits are covered by this card so like if I went to my gp and had to get meds I go to chemist and my meds would only cost 1 euro 50 cent or if I needed treatment after surgery I wouldn't. Have to pay because it be covered by the card also I don't work I left along time ago over mental health problems then I got pneumonia that's how my carcinoid was found
