I so appreciate your feedback and praying next steps are mild for you.
May I ask if you have ever had any type of surgery associated with your cancer?

Yes, I had the Whipple in May 2021 about 5 weeks after my diagnosis. All of my chemotherapy was after the surgery when I did Folfirinox. for 12 sessions, 6 months, starting in August 2002 and ending in January 2003. I have been NED for 10 months and minimal residual disease for the past 2 months.

I was just scheduled for surgery 4/14 for a distal pancreatectomy. They began and found another small spot under the pancreas attached to the wall of abdomen. They took a biopsy immediately and it was found to be cancerous so they aborted the operation. Now we are on to plan B. Will take Signatera , CA 19, and CT scan in mid May to see next steps.
