If doctors cannot tell me what caused my pancreititas, and can't tell me how NOT to get it again...

Hi, curious, u have chronic pancreatitis ? Or is it just acute attacks? I too am having problems believe its chronic now, 2 attacks 2014, was told not pancreatitis, 2016 again and 2017, i have MRCP, CT scan fecal elastase, EUS enzynes always normal, i have fat in stool, now trying some enzymes, this is a week and now seeing a slight difference, if you have chronic maybe try some enzymes, have u done faecal fat test?

Are you seeing a pancreas specialist? I was born with two pancreatic ducts that never fused together … very rare condition called Pancreas Divisum. Due to that condition it caused chronic pancreatitis. I was having attacks and my blood never showed it so the doctors didn’t catch it until last year. Since I have two narrow ducts they build up with sludge. In order to prevent it I have had multiple ERCPs. However you also need to change your lifestyle. You should be eating six small meals rather than three big ones, watch your sugar intake, stay very hydrated. Also raw veggies might be too hard to digest so I’ve been recommended frozen. Whenever you have abdominal pain then rest your pancreas by not eating for a couple days. Stick to clear broth then introduce Ensure. Once you start to feel better then introduce your low fat meals. I eat an orange as it helps me with inflammation but I cannot drink orange juice because it upsets my stomach. I also have to take acid reflux medication. Unfortunately there’s no cure, but speaking with a pancreas specialist and figuring out a treatment plan for you could be a start. Not all GI specialist understand the pancreas definitely not primary doctors. We’re all unique in our symptoms but with proper tests and treatments you can prevent future attacks. Good luck.
