@mfgw, you are right. Staying on top of new growths is important. Do you have upper endoscopies on a regular basis?

My last surgery in the duodenal bulb was done using endoscopy equipment. It was an outpatient procedure. Much better than the first two surgeries which were invasive and required nearly a week's hospital stay.

My duodenum surgery was major in 2008. I am scheduled for an advanced EDG. The plans are to take a piece for pathology. It cannot safely be removed without perforating. I am hoping the drug I am starting will stop the tumor from spreading or multiplying.

How are you doing?
