Two PPIs had horrible side effects and famotidine is not a PPI so you are good.   "Live long and prosper!"

I was just having fun about the Doctors practicing medicine.   I actually appreciate what modern medicine has been able to do in the past fifty or sixty years (not the Covid Fiasco).   Even your Whipple procedure seems to be happening all over.

Whipple procedures are used for cancer in the pancreas, duodenum and bile duct. My surgeon was very proficient. She did my open Whipple in 4 hours. The procedure ranges from 4 to 12 hours. Each one is a custom job depending on where the problem is located.
