    Post-Whipple survivors from pancreatic cancer

    My wife had a successful Whipple operation 14 years ago. She developed diebeties and had some digestive problems but is very happy to be alive. However for the past year she has been steadyly losing weight. I was wondering if there is any way to stop the weight lose which threatens to become a serious problem if it continues.

    I would ask if she is taking Creon also she should be monitoring all of her intake. I recommend all hi carb diet trying to put weight back on also don’t get lazy the old saying use it or loose it is a good one to live by. I’m a 5 year pancan servivor now at age 65 . Good luck
