Delayed response but thank you all for your input. I have been soo busy, caring for my Dad, supporting my Mom plus being married, raising three teen boys and oh yeah, I have a wife too.

A lot has changed since I first posted. It turns out that both the local GI and the CPMC in San Francisco GI mis-diagnosed by Dad. He actually had a small tumor which pressed up against the bile duct, exhibiting bile duct cancer symptoms.

He underwent the stereotactic radiosurgery for both the lung and the pancreatic tumor between May 16 thru 23. He is now six weeks into recovery. It is still uncertain whether he is cured or not. We will find out on August 14 when we return to Stanford. We are cautiously optimistic.

Very curious, has anybody ever experienced a similar “mis-diagnosis”?
