I had a distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy on Jan 5, 2023. You have to take it easy the first 6-8 weeks meaning no lifting & eat a low fat with small meals. Drink lots of water. Get lots of rest. Low intensity exercise like walking helps the healing process. I had no complications other than middle back pain that started about a month after. Surgeon said it was likely my nerves and inflammation. I started wearing Lifewave X39 & Aeon stem cell activation patches on the area & pain totally diminished within about a week. I have been wearing them ever since & there has been no recurrence of the pain at all. They speed wound healing also. I’m 100% now. No blood sugar issues however I eat no sugar due to cancer growing & thriving from sugar.
