Mayo said it is an.....

Insulinoma! BOO! I went to mayo 12/22-12/24 and they did all the testing and ultrasound and CT scan and found the tumor...it is on the center of my pancreas...they are hoping to remove the tumor, but it is very close to the pancreatic duct so they may be removing the tail end of the pancreas...surgery is set for January 11th...I am mixed on my emotions..I am glad that they found it but nervous for my surgery....have to have it though, can't continue like this. So there you have it....first Christmas with my husband and we got this news on 12/23...oh well, what can you do about it? Keep me in your minds...I will be in the hospital from 1/10-1/18 and then a 6 week recovery...will be back in touch!
