When you have a dragon inside you like pancreatic cancer, you want to find the best dragonslayers out there. In this episode, I talk about finding the best medical team and undergoing my first treatment evaluation at Mayo Clinic.

I start out talking about my experience (and my panic attack) in the PET-CT scan. Then I talk about the research I did to find a medical team to guide me through this treatment. And then talk about a laparoscopic surgery to look for metastatic tumors...and the installation of my chemo port. 

If you would like to contact me, please send an email to adventuresofpancanman@gmail.com. I've love some feedback. And to hear your stories. The Adventures of PanCan Man is designed to be a community project -- I'm just telling my story first.
