Hello, I had an acute pancreatitis a few months ago caused by a gallstone. I now have a large pseudocyst on my pancreas that has to be drained into my stomach with a stent. I also may have a aneurysm below my pancreas that I am waiting for a CT scan. I have been told that the stent procedure will require a 2 week hospital stay. Are the stent and aneurysm procedures risky? Should I make a full recovery? Thank you
