Hello, I’m not really sure if I’m doing this right, but I’ll try. My husband had surgery in March for an insulinoma and was doing very well until Aug. 9th when his blood sugar plummeted. He’s been in the hospital since then but have an appt. at Mayo Sept14th. He’s flying up there in an air ambulance and I’ll drive up. We have no idea what to expect, but have faith in the doctors there (faith in Jesus first, tho). I just wanted to see what this group is like…it seems very friendly and welcoming.

Hello @mit and welcome to Mayo Connect. Yes, you are doing this right!

I am so glad to hear that your husband will be seen at Mayo later this month. We have a discussion group devoted to insulinoma. Here is the link, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/insulinoma-1/. You might be interested in reading the posts and having some information prior to your husband's visit.

What type of surgery did your husband have in March? Did your husband's current doctor refer him to Mayo or did you decide to do this on your own?
