Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / June 2006asking for prayers and good thoughts
hi group, i'm on my way to johns hopkins today for the annual cat scan of the growth in my pancreas. this growth is a type that often turns malignant after 5-15 years. i've had it at least eight. every year they check to see if it's grown. if it grows, even if it looks otherwise benign, i'll have to have an operation called the whipple procedure to remove it. very serious surgery in which they remove a bunch of otherwise healthy organs and long long recovery time. it would wreak havoc on my work, which can't handle much more havoc right now! anyhow, i feel particularly nervous this year because of being at the max dose of remicade and the link between remi and cancers. so i have the scan today and see the doc at hopkins tomorrow, which is great--i'll get the news quickly. i feel very well aside from RA, so am hopeful. please send good vibes toward baltimore! hugs and thanks, diane Wishing you the best results.

Loujean >hi group, >i'm on my way to johns hopkins today for the annual cat scan of the [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > >diane With all those who care about you and a positive attitude you can't go wrong. I hope everything goes well. God bless. Lyn thanks so much, everybody! the results were good, or at least as good as could be. the tumor/cysty thing hasn't grown any larger, so i'm off the hook for now. the doc did say he'd like to move my cat scan to an every six months basis, especially since i'm on remicade. ugh. i'll have to find a good pancreatic doc down here in the raleigh area since going to hopkins every six months will get old really fast. but i feel verrrrry relieved. thanks for the prayers and good wishes, diane > thanks so much, everybody! > the results were good, or at least as good as could be. the tumor/cysty [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > diane good, good news. well, if there are any good pancreatic docs in NC (and there must be) there'd be one in that research triangle area. I hope you've managed to get some decent insurance somewhere though if you're looking at semi-annual CAT scans!

Good luck on finding a doctor you can use in your area.

I have masses on both of my adrenals and I had to go back every 6 months for three years for them to CT scan to see if any changes. I wish you luck with your tumor. I hope all turns out well for you.
