Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some benign or malignant mass lesion in tail of pancreas. Please send me your old reports. Because you may have recurrence of lesion. You should investigate for that. You can go for tumour marker test also according to your previous disease.
Consult your doctor and plan accordingly.
