So far we’re at a loss and a little discouraged. Dr here at Mayo said yesterday none of his pain and symptoms have to do with the pnet. He believes it’s nonfunctional and benign. We had a biopsy today we now wait for the results although endoscopist said he had a rough time seeing the tumor. We are relieved he doesn’t have cancer but we we’re really hoping for answers or direction of what his symptoms and pain are coming from.

I'm a little confused. If the doctor is having difficulty finding the tumour, how can he say it's a non functional and benign? Put pressure on them to do the necessary test/scan and hope to get your answer soon.
