I'm seeking help from other forum users about the side effects after pancreatic surgery. I have read some articles online, but I'd like to ask people who have experienced or know someone who has gone through this procedure what the side effects are. I know that this is a major surgery and I want to make sure I am aware of any potential risks or complications that may arise.
