Thanks; I need to hear from real people

I dont know what I will do. I will have the ercp in a few weeks and

am expected to decide what procedure I will choose BEFORE the

procedure. I cant do that. My options: sphincteroplasty with a

less then 50-50 chance of efficacy or a whipple which with my

surgical history; the odds are not good. I am really tempted to

scrap it all and stay with what I have. But my supervisor told me

today excesive absentism may result in dismissal. I cant believe at

this point in time I am having to choose between my career and my

health. I wish to God I could just turn back the clock.

Sorry to be so whiney;
