Hello all. My hubby's (63) lesion was found by surprised via CT for hernia. Surgeon here in Australia had suggested to remove the non functioning, benign, static 10 cent size tumour before it spread. He's had his distal panc & spleen via lap. Now he has recovered week 7 but still has his drain attach and being reviewed weekly to see if output getting smaller. He developed fever and have on on Amoxicillin for the presence of bugs. He was also put on creon 25,000 3x a day and having abdo pain at times. How long other people keeps the drain ?🙏

I had Whipple and liver ablation, liver resection in 2019 primary NET was on the head of the pancreas. I had a drain that healed on its own at 4 months. It was draining around 230ml a day then it just stopped. Wishing your hubby the best.
