Sorry no one has answered your earlier post subedo, its likely that no one does have a similar diagnosis hence the lack of replies. Maybe the fact you've posted again might draw other posters out but possibly not.

Sorry I can't shed any light on your situation.

Hi, I've been having problems with my pancreas too but my MRI in Sept showed 2 nodules which were still there in Jan when I had a second MRI. They are still the same size so my hospitals multidisciplinary team aren't too worried. I'm still waiting for them to decide on the next step.

Sorry I can't help more x

Sorry you didn't get reply. I'm sorry around pancreas as well as liver but pancreas doesn't show anything. Love and hugs xxxx

subedo,

do you happen to have cysts on your kidneys as well? I do, luckily none on my pancreas. I have PKD.

Seems to be a pretty frequent find with PKD:

Good luck.

Hi there...nothing on my kidneys just a cyst on the tail end of my pancreas...i am going for a scan in April so fingers crossed its shrunk or not grown anyway. I've been on a keto diet and taking curcummin and serrapeptase to try and shrink the bugger i have named Casper!

ps. whats PKD?

PKD = Polycystic kidney disease. Pretty often with cysts elsewhere, too, liver first of all. Genetic stuff. ADPKD is rather common. Most common genetic disorder in humans.
