[emoji846]I too had a subtotal-pancreatectomy about 18 years ago and was lucky enough to be left completely symptom free after a long period of hypoglycaemia as a kid... In September 2015, after they found more tumours in my remaining bit of pancreas, the doctors decided the whole heap needed to come out and I've been left insulin dependant and with pancreatic exocrine insufficiency. But I've also found this forum and learned that I'm Type3c and a whole bunch of other stuff too. I've had 3/4 of my parathyroids out too and take medication to manage a pituitary adenoma, but have to admit that I've never felt better than I do now post-op! Are you managing the MEN1? Did you have a family history or were you diagnosed as a result of investigation?...sorry to ask so many questions, I guess I'm just super excited to meet someone in a similar position!Hope you're well! Ruth.</blockquote>
