    Default carcinoid syndrome

    I am just wondering if anyone has ever heard of anyone being diagnosed with carcinoid syndrome. My husband has been told he has a tumor in his stomach, which may be a carcinoid tumor. The Dr. doesn't seem to know much about it. According to the internet they are rare. He is only 46 and also has Young Parkinson's Disease. If you know of anyone who has been diagnosed, please let me know. Thank You

    I do not know of anyone personally... but I work at a research hospital and can get you some inside information.
    please read http://www.massgeneral.org/cancer/cr.../carcinoid.asp to start. And let me know if you'd like more information that I can get for you.
