Hi there

dbravo26

I was informed 72 hours ago by my doctor that it was " extremely likely" I had pancreatic cancer in the tail of my pancreas. I had been given an urgent referral to UVA in Charlottesville VA and having spoke to them have been told I should have my first appointments with them later this week, I'll be honest I'm still processing all this and when I broke the news to a few friends I struggled to keep my calm given the responses I got....They talked to me as if I was already gone...I'm not going to lie I'm struggling badly to adapt to this what can I honestly expect in the early days of the consult/biopsy/treatment stages

Hi,

I'm sorry that you are going through this. I assume that you have more information about what is going on now... I hope that the diagnosis was not cancer.

@dbravo26 What did you find out from your doctor? I am a pancreatic cancer survivor and cancer free for just short of five years. Peace to you, Rita Ann
