    I have a friend who was just diagnosed with a similar condition to yours. I don't know her stage but she starts treatment with Octreotide in January. I love her dearly and was just looking for folks with similar experience so I might be able to help her.

    Sounds like you are doing well on your trial. That's great news!

    Hi jujunoodle- welcome to this site. I hope you find it has helpful and supportive as so many others have. Somehow, it does seem to help to communicate with others about this rare disease. It looks like we have a similar diagnosis. Are you on the Sandostatin shots? I've been on them for nearly 2 yrs. have you been able to find a specialist you are confident about? Hope so! Very best wishes on your journey!
