As you are comfortable sharing more, what symptoms led your medical team to the decision to perform a distal pancreatectomy?

Hi there-

I am sorry for my delay in responding as I have been traveling back/forth to Mayo for my appointments. How are you doing? How did your surgery go? What questions can I help you with? I would love to hear from you. I wish you a speedy recovery!

Warmest Wishes,
Sherry
