Looking for info on my rare cancer

Hi there everyone. I've been diagnosed with ampullary cancer, ie, dealing with the Ampulla of Vater which is where the bile duct enters the pancreas/small intestine (I'm not actually sure what the anatomy looks like in detail).

Unfortunately, I see no fora for either this or bile duct cancer. Is there another community that would be more suitable to my needs? I appreciate your help!
