Hi again @faithann64,

I really appreciate your update. It sounds as if your doctors are following a reasonable protocol. The MRI is the best way to see these cysts and the EUS that you will have sounds appropriate as well. That was the order of my diagnosis, too.

Here is some information from Mayo Clinic's website about pancreatic cysts, https://www.mayoclinic.org/medical-professionals/digestive-diseases/news/more-data-needed-to-guide-pancreatic-cyst-management/mac-20430487.

Do your best to not worry (I know that it is easier said than done). If possible, do something to get your mind off of it for now. Once your doctor has the results of the MRI and the EUS you will have more information.

I look forward to hearing from you again. Will you post an update after your procedures?
