If you were diagnosed with two cyst on your pancreas?!
Question:
If you were diagnosed with two cyst on your pancreas?
Don't you think they should be removed?
Right now the dr is saying that they are inflamed, I'm going for a mrcp (I'm told mrcp is like a mri) tomorrow in the am. But the more I think of it, I really just want them removed. What are the dangers, if any. Can anyone give me some insight please?
I also have diabetes
Answers:
Follow your doctors advise!! Any surgeries to the pancreas can be very serious and could lead to pancreatitis.
If you are worried about cancer, they can always do a needle biopsy. Usually they can tell by the appearance of the cysts on the MRI.
If you drink or smoke, you need to stop.
