I am considering the whipple procedure but this makes me wonder.I have read there is a 2 month recovery and have found that they are now doing it by laproscopy which improves the recovery.Problem is you have to find someone that does it that way.Mayo clinic does but that is too far for me.Tell your Dad to hang in there.He made it this far and he is now at the end of treatment,praise God.
Hello @sofiadide20 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I wanted to bring your post on your dad's post-treatment journey into a discussion that I noticed you had previously joined and commented.
I think you can both celebrate life after pancreatic cancer and also connect with others who are on the other side of their journey, like your dad is, as many others may be experiencing or may have experienced similar trailing symptoms and might be able to provide you with support for your dad.
Would your dad have interest in joining Connect himself to connect with others like him?
