I recently posted about my bout of jaundice caused by biliary blockage and subsequent 2 sessions of biliary sepsis
Results of scans tubes down throat to remove stones, take biopsy and place a stent are in
Well
A pre cancerous polyp where pancreatic and bile duct enter duodenum !
So a preemptive operation needed
Remove gallbladder, head of pancreas, most of bile duct and part of duodenum. Then connect all the bits together- quite a big operation called the whipple’s operation
Without complications in for ten days then quite a long period of recovery
I thought just a gallbladder removal by keyhole surgery on the cards.
Onwards and upwards
Probably will be end November
