Thank you! It’s funny because this is my 3rd GI! He specializes in pancreatic cysts. He said they will present my case to the tumor board Friday to see what the plan will be. I hate that they said it’ll take 2-3 weeks to let me know though 😩

This is just a speed bump on your road. Waiting can be hard, but you need to try stay positive that you will get to where you are going.

Mine had the potential to turn cancerous and I have a family history of pancreatic cancer

I'm so sorry you are having this issue, but pleased that you are taking care of it. As someone else on this thread has already said, this is just a speedbump on your way to your glorious new you. If you're like me, you just want to go go go. Get it done. Let's get on to the next thing. But sometimes life slows us down and tells us to take a pause to catch our breath.

Perhaps contemplate on all of the reasons you are going through WLS. It can solidify your resolve and give you more confidence that your decision is the right one for you. I've tried to use the four months of waiting to get my head in the right place. Hasn't always worked, but i'm much closer to having my head in the game than I was before the four months.

Hang in there. ((HUGS))

Just an update-really good news guys! The cyst is actually forming from my kidney. Soooo the doctor has decided to monitor it every 6 months since cytology came back with everything being non-malignant. This means after my March 3rd psych appointment everything will be sent into the insurance! I’m super excited & ready.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
