I was diagnosed in March of this year with neuro endocrine tumor of the pancreas.my treatment is going well,one injection every 28 days.

What has upset me quite a lot ,is the mass was there and visible in 2016 and nothing was said ,it had shown up on a gall bladder scan .This anger is no good to me now ,it goes away and then just randomly reappears.

  • Hi  and welcome to the Online Community, a Community that no one ever really plans to see themselves joining, and so sorry to hear about your diagnosis.

    A cancer diagnosis brings a lot of confusion, stress and many questions but talking with other people who are on the same type of journey helps a lot. 

    I had a totally different type of cancer but the Community has various support groups so can I direct you to our Pancreatic cancer group as this is the place where you will connect with others walking the treatment journey both as a patient or family.
