Can Any Online Doctor Help Me With The Results Of Upper EUS?

I am a stage 4 colon cancer survivor and recently did an upper EUS and it showed that I had one bnormal lymph node in the peri pancreatic region as well as pancreatic parenchymal abnormalities consisting of hyperechoic strands were noted in the entire pancreas. Can you please explain as simple as possible what that means

HI
Thank for choosing HCM
I really can understand your concern and of course it is your right to know the exact what happening inside your body, the over all report are suggestive of some inflammatory process is going on around the pancreatic duct and the cells of pancreas it self, but it does not indicate the severity of disease, hope this will help you have nice day.
I find this answer helpful
