Now pancreatitis! anyone experience?

As a quick refresher, Caryn had the SIRT procedure about 3 months ago to attack a large stubborn single spot in her liver. The Sirt worked very well on the original spot, as it's considerably smaller. Unfortunately a new small spot (1.2 cm) has popped up in her liver, there's now cancer in the nodes right by the liver and her pancreas is lighting up on the PET. My biggest concern right now is the pancreas. The Dr's feel that the pancreas lighting up is due to pancreatitis rather than cancer but I'll feel much better when we get confirmation that there's no cancer there. Regardless, the inflammation is causing Caryn pain and discomfort so she's now on pain meds. They'll schedule an endoscopy to confirm what's causing the pancreatitis so any positive thoughts sent our way will be greatly appreciated. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
