Prognosis for severe pancreas atrophy in elderly with no symptoms. a1c is 5.2 no meds. was found on ct scan while looking for kidney inflammation.

Not a concern: Pancreatic atrophy on ct is not a concern. The potential issue is pancreatic function which sounds like it is normal. Overall, i don't see anything to worry about.
