I am scheduled for the whipple procedure Mar 17 at Bon Secours Memorial Regional hospital, Mechanicsville VA. I am concerned about it and the outcome, life expectancy after surgery,,,, 5- 10 years. How are you doing today? Appreciate your opinion. thank you for sharing, David Bradford,

Your statement was encouraging for me as I had Stage !A and had a whipple four months ago and first market CA19-9 came back at 13.20 and I elected to not do chemo. Good for you as it has been a long time now. Jack
