EUS Pancreas Biopsy

TiffanysPancreas profile image

I have a second EUS scheduled in a couple weeks because a pancreas biopsy wasn't done at the first one. I recently had an MRCP which showed a small pancreatic cyst. Will the biopsy be done to the cyst or just somewhere on my pancreas?

An EUS is an endoscopic ultrasound. It's an internal ultrasound where they go in through your mouth.

The biopsy will be done on the cyst.

my biopsy came back inconclusive and then my GI said he thinks i have a disorder of the gut brain. i am still in pain and discomfort and having dizzy spells/light headedness for a year now. any advice or info on getting a definite diagnosis... test to ask for? I go back to my GI in a couple weeks and my primary Dr this week but neither of them are doing anything for me
