MY DAUGHTER IS HAVING RECURRENT STROKES OF ACUTE PANCREATITIS. NOW SHE IS 12 YEARS OLD AND HAVING THE PROBLEM FOR LAST 2 YRS. THE ATTACKS HAVE LESSEND A BIT THIS YEAR IN TERMS OF RECURRANCES. SHE HAS BEEN ADVISED SONOGRAPHY REPEATEDLY BUT GENERALLY EVERY TIME ONLY A BULGE IN THE TAIL OF PANCREAS IS FOUND. ERCP HAS BEEN DONE AND THE DUCTS ARE NOT DILATED. SO SCHRINTOMY WAS NOT POSSIBLE. PLEASE SUGGEST TREATMENT AND WHETHER AT ALL THIS IS CURABLE.
I have had 2 bouts of acute pancreatitis. I underwent 11 months of interferon back in 1997 for hep C. Could this be causing the pancreas problems. I have been Hep c free RNA neg after treatment.
I am undergoing treatment for pancreatitis, I am 29 yrs old and not an alcoholic. What precautions I should take while undergoing treatment ? what are the chances of recovering from this disease?
We took him to a specialist hospital where he had the same treatment in ICU as a human with pancreatitis. He had a central line placed in his neck so he didn't have to get stuck with needles all the time, and was put on TPN - nutrition given via IV. He also had a ton of pain meds - a 75 mcg fentanyl patch along with injections of dilaudid for breakthrough pain. At least I know he was as comfortable as humanly possible those last couple of weeks.
If you can get in to see a doctor, you should. It could be many different things. Could be gas, indigestion, acute pancreatitis, or a few other things. I'd skip the general practitioner and try to go straight to a GI. They will probably run blood tests at first. Hopefully that will help figure out the exact cause.
The most common cause of chronic pancreatitis is many years of heavy alcohol use. The chronic form of pancreatitis can be triggered by one acute attack that damages the pancreatic duct. The damaged duct causes the pancreas to become inflamed. Scar tissue develops and the pancreas is slowly destroyed."
You can't live without your pancreas, so if it's destroyed, the end result will not be a happy one.
My husband had pancreatitis in early October. They kept him in the hospital for 5 days. They kept him on strong pain medication to help. He was not allowed to eat for 2 days, then they gave him jello and broth. They treated it very seriously! Maybe seek a second opinion, get a different GI doctor.
I recently got out of the hospital for an attack of acute pancreatitis. They did a cat scan, MRI and EDG and couldn't find the cause of my attack. The cat scan and MRI showed that I had multiple lymph nodes in my retroperitoneum. They were under 10mm on the cat scan but as large as 17mm on the MRI. I'm a 41 year old female and I don't have a history of alcohol abuse. I smoked for 25 years but I quit after having this attack.
It's possible you have chronic pancreatitis instead of acute- that condition can lead to diabetes and does require more treatment. I'd go for a follow up or get a second opinion to make sure that they are addressing this- it might not be chronic, but it's worth another check in if you are still experiencing pain.

Can a person develop chronic pancreatitis after having acute pancreatitis that resulted from having an ERCP? I have developed abdominal pain that radiates to my side and back that is relieved when I lean forward and worsens when I lean back. No nausea or vomiting, no fever. Should I follow up with my doctor? I had the acute pancreatitis around 2004. Thanks for your response.
About one and a half years ago I was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis around 3-4 times within a period of only three months. I was also only 17 at the time which the doctors found incredibly unusual of course. I dont drink alcohol and I dont eat bad food too much. Had an MRI Scan that came out normal, No cancer, nothing wrong with the surrounding organs, had colonoscopy and gastroscopy that came out normal too.
Did they say chronic pancreatitis or acute? If acute I would think they would keep you in the ER. People with CP often end up taking digestive enzymes to help digest food and they often are advised to eat very low fat and avoid alcohol and smoking. You can have flares of acute pancreatitis so always go to er if you feel it coming on.
re headed to an acute bout of pancreatitis and trust me, you do not want that to happen. Pancreatitis often turns into the gift that keeps on giving and becomes a horribly painful, chronic condition. Alcohol abuse is a common cause of pancreatitis and any doctor will tell you that alcohol has to go out of your life forever or you risk another acute attack.
Alcohlic hepatitis is another condition high on the list of suspects.
I had my first attack of acute pancreatitis last week. It was a mild attack. I spent a couple of days in the hospital on IV. I'm feeling much better and haven't had another painful attack. However, I still seem to have soreness on my left side, but not in the same location as the pancreatitis pain. My stomach is also still bloated. My attack was 5 days ago. My question is; is it normal to have some residual soreness after acute pancreatitis?
I came down with acute pancreatitis March 28, 2010. I spent 27 days in the hospital. Nobody has been able to tell me why I got so sick. I was a heavy nicorette chewer for years. I quit the day I went to the hospital. I do not know if there is an association with the nicorette and pancreatitis. Wondering.
She has pancreatitis in the past but for about 7 times in the last 5 months she is been in an out of the hospital with acute pancreatitis. When pancreatitis occurs she always has a strong pain with elevated Amylase and Lipase levels suggesting a pancreatic dysfunction. Yesterday she woke up vomiting with just a litter abdominal discomfort. Blood work shows no significant levels of amylase or lipase. I thought for a moment she probably has a gastric virus but then the Dr.
My aunt had a mini-schnauzer who had an acute attack early in life. She had chronic pancreatitis for the rest of her life with a handful of acute attacks thrown in. BUT, she lived to be 18. I'm praying for that kind of outcome for your little girl. Do keep us posted on her progress.
I'm due to see my GI doctor in two weeks. I seen him two years ago for a endoscopy and he said, everything looked good. I went back to see him last year and told him about the pain in my stomach and back and he just felt around my stomach and said, your fine. Its anxiety ! He said, stress and anxiety disorders can make things feel ten times worse then they really are, stop worrying. See you next year. I haven't lost any weight in fact I put on about 10lbs. since I last seen him.
An acute pancreatitis in my experience does not normally cause ascites. FIP is a possibility but I would be more interested in looking at causes of a low serum protein. Low protein causes a buildup of fluid in the abdomen and is often associated with a condition called exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Protein could be lost via the intestine (protein losing enteropathy) or in the urine (protein losing nephropathy).
Scaring on pancreas due to an acute pancreatitis attack 5 years ago.
Yes get these checked at the emergency. Pancreatitis is dangerous if it is the acute kind. If your levels are not raised you could have chronic pancreatitis so you could get tested for that.
