Posted: 03/26/08 - 12:57 Post subject: Life after removal of pancreas, gall bladder, spleen? Anyone |
|
|
| I have been diagnosed with renal cell cancer of the pancreas. Treatment will require total removal of pancreas, gall bladder and spleen. This will render me diabetic. Has anyone out there had this done and could you please tell me what your experience has been of the operation but also of quality of life afterwards......Any input on any of the above would be gratefully recieved. Thank you. |

Hi loulou: I'm fearful I might have the same fate only different C
What is renal cell C in the pancrea??
I have to say I woul;d love to keep in touch.
I hope I will be eligible for the op your having, I know that might sound crazy but what is the alternative??
What state do you live in and what happened?/
I mean how did the symptoms start and what tests did thy do
to give you this diagnosis??
Sincerely,
Denise

Hi
I had my pancreas, spleen & gallbladder out as well (also part of my bile duct & small intestine.) I am 2 1/2 yrs out of the surgery. I am Type 1 diabetic and that isn't easy but its become much easier since the pump/ I take great care of myself, have 2 young boys, exercise everyday, very active in all my kids activities and have full, good life. It takes determination and a VERY positive attitude. Choose to live and surround yourself with uplifting people. We all have crosses to bear and we choose how we carry them through life. Feel free to contact me anytime for support. It really helps
Good luck!!
