[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was eager to try it to lose about 25 lbs but now after talking to doctor, not so sure...with a history of pancreatic cancer in my extended family (an uncle, a second cousin) I am feeling cautious. No one has mentioned that this class of drugs is associated with contributing to growths on the pancreas, typically benign, but not something to take lightly since pancreatic issues can be hard to identify. And it's not exactly healthy to have yearly ct scans of your abdomen to rule out pancreatic cancer if you stay on the drug for years.

I thought for sure my doctor would reassure me that the risk is minimal but he really was not quite sure it was and suggested I run it by my gastroenterologist. I'm pre diabetic, not diabetic but the growths on the pancreas issue gives me pause.[/quote]

Do you have a source for this information about pancreatic growths?[/quote]

The source was my physician, but yes there are articles that reference benign pancreatic cysts[/quote]

can you cite them???[/quote]
