Robee,
Thank you for sharing
I am also inoperable and had sbrt at miami cancer institute an affiliate with MSK
I received the 5 day treatment. The last week of Sept. things looked stable and scans last week show a few differences so I will get a PET scan in 2 weeks to see whats really going on..
My c19-9 went down drastically to 4 a month after the radiation. But last week was 16. Still within normal. But Dr didnt like the trend so wants the PET.. to dicifer if its scar tissue or if the cancer is still present ..
And Ive had some bathroom issues last month and increased my enzymes which I think are helping but still has me worried
I have a biliary and duodenal stent
Not that I ever have a day with out some discomfort ..
Prayers for good PET results for both of us .. 🙏🏻

Update
My pet had a few uptake lights. That need to be addressed. And shows something either scar tissue or tumor infiltrating my duodenum stent so need endoscopy to see whats going on. This would make sense with issues Ive been having..
So I still have no conclusive status yet

Thank you for this information. It may be helpful for my husband, as drs told him his pancreatic cancer is inoperable.
