I went immediately to Mayo Rochester. Talked to dr Kendrick did my chemo in my home town. Got an other opinion from U of Michigan they said they couldn’t help me. Long story short Dr Kendrick performed the Whipple 9 months ago I am doing well. I did 8 rounds fulfironox and 3 weeks of the higher intensity radiation. 6 weeks later had surgery and the tumor was dead. I would go to Mayo for the radiation. Dr Jethwa the radiation oncologist is great also. I woukd not trust anyone else to do the radiation.
I am working on my new digestion and doing well. Best of luck to you all!

@nvan22 is it ok to ask, when was your whipple by Dr Michael Kendrick?

I had the similar case with my surgery in April this year. It was performed by Dr, Patrick Starlinger at Mayo in Rochester.
