Rexan20, Whether you're advised to monitor the cysts or have treatment depends on the type of cyst you have, its size, its characteristics and whether it's causing symptoms. Are you cysts causing you symptoms? What does you doctor recommend?

Hello @rexsan20

As Colleen, @colleenyoung, said it all depends on the location and type of cysts. Have you read the scan report to see where they are located and the size? About 10 years ago, I was diagnosed with pancreatic cysts (there are four cysts as I recall). I certainly panicked when I learned of them.

I had an ultrasound endoscopy and they were determined to be IPMN, (which can be cancerous or benign), but nothing that looked terribly serious. As I have a history of carcinoid cancer of the upper digestive tract, my GI doctor follows up every two years with an MRI of the liver, pancreas, etc. So far no major changes in size or type.

Talk with your doctor and see what follow up is best for you. How are you feeling? Any digestive tract symptoms?
