2 Attacks of Pancreatitis In a Month No Known Cause Yet Posted: 07-30-06 20:22pm
I am kind of curious if any of you have
had acute pancreatitis come up more than
once in a month. I started getting ill in
april with only nausea and vomiting after
I ate. I went to the doctors in june and
they said it was acid reflux. Well about
2 weeks later I got a lot of pain after a
few days of pain the doctor took blood
tests nad did an ultrasound and said I had
acute pancreatitis. My lipase then was
2000. I stayed in the hospital for 5 days
and then went home. I felt great for
about a week and my blood tests after a
week out lipase 180. I did have a few
days of nause and vomiting a few days
later and then after a ewek I had a lot of
pain hit again. I went to the er and they
said my lipase was 7000 and sent me home
with pain killers. I have read people
getting the pain every once and awhile but
was curious if anyone has the same problem
and what caused it? Any info would be
great

hello janenecd, I have suffered for over
10 years with a case o pancreatitis, and
it comes and goes. I have sever asthma
and I have to take steriods oral or iv
make it worse and it never comes up on
blood tests, it can be confirmed by ct
scan, with contrast.. Be very a where of
what you eat and no sugar, alcohol,
chocolate. It would be a good idea to
keep a diary of all the pain, food,
exercises everything.. Then they will
thing you are serious. And bee strong and
never give up a friend ww
