Hi Leonie,
thanks for your reply. Reading back in my original post shows me that I was in a negative place then. I guess this happens in cycles. I am more positive now. I do have a recurrence and am going for a biopsy in 2 days. Small growth that will likely be carcinogenic. Then I will have radiation treatment. I am actually relived. I feel this is small and treatable. I’m learning to live with this process and taking it in stride.
I hope your sister is doing well and can take a positive attitude as well. Let me know if there is anyway I can help.

I had very high bilirubin. About 30-40. I had the whipple surgery and then started chemo a month later. The bilirubin did eventually come down to normal. My chemo went very smoothly, minimal side effects. I was taking Capcitebine. So, for me, the only issue was the jaundice and I can’t say it was worse with chemo. Hope that helps.
Hi, I am in a similar situation. I had the whipple surgery and was found to have 2 nodes with cancer. I did 6 months of chemo and that ended in March of this year. So far no new cancer has been found. Surgery was 1 year ago. I can’t say what is coming but the oncologist is hopeful and so am I. I hope the same goes for your father-in-law.
