Epigastric pain post whipple

Posted by weezi @weezi, Aug 2 2:20pm

Has anyone experienced severe epigastric pain after your Whipple?

I had episodes after surgery which I thought was just part of the healing process.

I’m over 2 years post op and am getting same pain which started out mild but has gotten worse these past couple of weeks.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Pancreatic Cancer Support Group.

@weezi, I'm tagging members like @mizbbd @amchurch @lilliejane2 @frygirl777 who have mentioned epigastric or burning, indigestion-like pain. I'm not sure if this was after Whipple surgery or not, but they might have some thoughts or experiences to share.

Weezi, have you spoken with your doctor in the meantime? What did you find out?

I haven’t spoken to him recently , but when they were coming regularly he wasn’t concerned.
I haven’t had any for almost 2 months. I’m keeping a diary to review with PCP if they continue.
Thanks for asking.
