It started around 6 months ago. I was going to the bathroom #2 for anywhere from 3 to 6 times a day and losing weight. At first I thought it was great, but when it continued I got concerned, so went to the doctor, got tested and diagnosed with EPI and after further testing, I was told that I had a cyst on my pancreas that was pre-cancers and that I should see an oncologist surgeon. The surgeon determined that the only way to move forward would be to have a "Whipple" procedure. After many days of investigation, I felt surgery was the only option. It was a"very" tough surgery to go through. Moving forward, chemo looks like the best option!
