    Yes. Initially thought to be unexplained chronic pancreatitus but turned out to be a tumour causing my pancreas to be inflamed. One Whipples operation and six months of chemo later, I'm currently cancer free.

    Have you had some sort of diagnosis or are you just assuming that's what the problem is based on your symptoms? If its the latter, get to a doctor.

    I have had a recurrence of this for the past few days. I've had Chronic Pancreatitis for over 20 years now and found that the older I get, when it comes back it doesn't get easier. It's definitely not one of those things you get used to.
