Dilated Pancreatic Duct & Looping of Small Intestines

Two distinctly different problems happening at the same time, both freaking me out. My gastro doctor has been away and has not yet seen the test results of either of these tests. They both showed up coincidentally through tests NOT intended for HEP C treatment. One was a pelvic ultrasound (thought I had an ovarian cyst, although I'm 56 yrs. old(!), and the other was a test regarding a back issue, both ordered my another doctor of mine.

Anyone know anything about either or both of these problems?! Thank you.

I don't think anybody here can help you... sorry. We are so focused on HCV and all the things directly related to that and treatment that any side issues don't get much attention.

Have you tried the search tool at the top of the page? Just type in  Pancreatic duct and see what you get.

Hi Diane. Thank you for responding. I'm nstill too new to the site to actually know what I'm doing. I have HEP C and the pancreatic duct issue is directed related, which is why I asked the question here, in particular. I was hoping that someone might have some experience with regard to the duct issue. Or, am I still in the wrong spot for my question?

Thanks again,
R

We are focused on HCV on this forum. There are other forums on this web site that may have someone who knows about this stuff.
