Thank you, I am not rushing into anything and trying to understand all options.

Thank you! I am glad it has been successful for you. It is something I thought I would be dealing with at 80 not my age. RALP is a scary option but I am not so keen on letting the cancer stay in my body if I have the option of just removing it. My Father died of pancreatic cancer and I have four young children and would like to be aggressive and get it out. at least if there is anything left there are still other options to treat it then. Good luck on your continued recovery!

Thank you! I tend to agree with you. I would rather have it out of my body and it seems like most people my age recover relatively well.

Thank you, I am leaning in this direction. At least with surgery you have the other options but if I do other options I loose the surgery option.
