During a recent endoscopy, it seems they found an NET in the stomach. I am not sure what this means. I will be at Mayo in Rochester next week for some more testing. I have a question. Does an NET signal something is amiss in the endocrine system? I ask this because I have been dealing with dry, flaky skin, rashes, headaches, hair loss, and my nails are thin and soft. I also seem to bruise easily. I don’t know much about this whole NET thing. I am 64 and a widow. Thanks for any light you could shine on this.

Hi katballoo!
I am so glad you will be going to Mayo in Rochester. You couldn’t be in better hands and hopefully they will be able to see if any of these recent skin issues are related. I have a pancreatic NETS and mine was discovered through and ESU Endoscopic ultrasound, that I was having on my liver. They were able to biopsy the NET and hopefully you will find out your Stage and grade soon. I am KI-67
