DH pancreatic lesion with symptoms

Ebabllisstggoffor · 24/11/2024 02:16

So we’re half way to our U.K. holiday break. This morning an appointment came through for my DH to see a consultant surgeon. This is an urgent appointment on the back of a recent MRI. It’s on Tuesday morning. He says he’s going to call them on Monday to rearrange it. My gut reaction is to head home and keep the appointment but he’s having none of it. He wants his holiday. I’m currently wide awake worrying about all this. What if he rings on Monday and can’t get a quick appointment? Should I try and persuade him that we should head home. What would be reasonable. I’m so very worried about him.

Ah @Ebabllisstggoffor I am so sorry to hear about your DH. I really hoped being offered the Whipple was an encouraging sign for the future. He died so quickly, your head must be in a whirl. Sending love x

You should read the ops updates. Her DH passed away. Might want to edit.

I’m so sorry to hear this utterly shocking update.

I lost my beloved Dad to pancreatic cancer, I know how terrible it can be; the deterioration for us was head spinning.

Being shouted at in all caps does not make a poster feel good either.

I didn't say your symptom was related to pancreatic cancer. I made the point that whatever it was that put you on that pathway was unlike the OP's husband's situation. Not sure why you are so incensed by that fact.

the poster shared an experience which sounded extremely scary but which turned out ok.

you immediately responded in a way which totally minimised what she had said. Strange!

Oh I am so very sorry OP, such a terrible shock for you and your family.
