Are you referring to a Pseudotumor of the pancreas; not sure what you mean by "water tumor."

Is she seeing a GI Specialist at this time?  I am assuming it was just found via imaging.

It sounds like a pancreatic cyst filled with water, but you used the word tumour....sounds like you need to clarify with the doctor.
