I met with my surgeon last week and they feel removal of the pancreas and spleen is necessary. All of the cancer is located in the pancreas and hopeful will be cancer free. I will become diabetic and have to take vaccinations probably often. Hoping I will be able to have an insulin pump. Have an appointment with endocrinologist next Monday. My surgeon is Dr. Christopher Seigel at the Cleveland Clinic. He did my Whipple 2 1/2 years ago. I am nervous
