@frances007, I agree with @astaingegerdm that you have a right to have the results of your tests and possible diagnosis explained to you in layman terms. Not only will that put your mind at ease, it will help you and doctors to work together as a team. It's good to ask questions.

I moved your posts to this existing discussion:
– Dilated pancreatic duct: Should I get a second opinion?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/dilated-pancreatic-duct/

I did this so that you can connect with @doxie2 who is going through a similar situation right now. Frances, have you considered getting a second opinion?

Thank you, Yes, I am in the process of getting a second opinion from a physician in San Francisco who is currently doing a study on patients with my condition. I understand patients these days really have to advocate more for themselves than they used to. Sometimes it can be quite taxing.
