I so appreciate your update. I feel with you both in the relief of "no metastasis" but I also share with you in your disappointment that there is currently "no fix" for your problem. I applaud your determination as you journey towards a cure and/or treatment.

If you are comfortable sharing more, could I ask what new med you are trying? Is the med being used to alleviate the symptoms of the blood sugar problem?

Sorry for they delay in response. Getting back and catching up. We are going to try Victoza which is technically a diabetic drug and appears a little counterintuitive but does help with insulin and glucagon control. There will be close monitoring/communication re: effectiveness once I start the medication. The other alternative was diazoxide which has significant side effects. Thanks for the questions.
