I'm looking for help understanding what 30 percent pancreas damage means. I'm concerned about a family member who recently had a medical test that revealed 30 percent pancreas damage. Could anyone provide some insight into what this could mean for them? Is this something to be worried about? Are there treatments that can help? I'm looking for any advice or information that can be shared on this topic. Thank you.
