Common Questions and Answers about Pancreatitis diet rice
pancreatitis
you are correct, cat food, being richer, has set off his pancreatitis. As you know acute pancreatitis can be a fatal event. It can also be transient. no one knows how your dog will do.
Medications will decrease the severity of this event and sounds like if you get him over this you have managed his diet very well.
I'd like to see his pancreatic work up and treat him to get him over this quickly and so that it does not progress further.
Thanks for the information. Duke's stomach has gone down quite a bit. He is 14 but looks and acts 7. He is doing great, hungry more than normal but he was NPO for 48 hours and I believe he is filling his stomach again, plus, he is on a bland diet and chicken and rice doesn't fill much. Do you think it would be OK to give him plain grits?
That is very bland and I am trying to think of something else to feed him.
I got him back on his meds and on Monday, he was taking small amounts of rice and chicken, but refused the prescription diet. He was happy and seemed back on track. This morning, he's back down and off his food again. I hate giving him meds on an empty stomach but he's refusing everything except his kibble, which obviously, he can't have.
I'll be taking him back to the vet but I know they're going to be obtuse about the food...
i am so glad I finally found someone with the same problem as I have, chronic pancreatitis. I have been going on a trial and error diet and don't want to get the pain and misery again! I did broil some chicken breast and had no problems. Also can eat about 2 ounces of tuna packed in water. As the pancreatitis has caused me to be diabetic that also causes problems. I am eating several small meals each day.
Wouold be glad of any suggestions that have worked for some body else.
re still on a bland diet (boiled rice or small pasta with boiled ground chicken). My doggy absolutely does not eat anything from can, so it should be either dry, or, probably, ny wife should start making food for him herself. Checking many brands over Internet, but have no idea so far. Thank you again. Best regards.
Has he been wormed recently,that can make them thin.
I agree 100% with Ginger, it sounds like an attack of pancreatitis to me. The normal treatment for pancreatitis is one week of hospitalization on NOTHING but IV fluids, not even water to drink, to give the pancreas TOTAL REST. After the week is up, they start slowly introducing very bland food.
Any time a dog is fed human food there is the risk of them developing pancreatitis, and even one meal can be enough to cause it.
He has been had several stool samples analyzed and has tested positive for Giardia and Coccidia, was treated, and tested negative 2 times since. We switched him to a chicken and rice diet to settle his stomach and the stool went completely normal. We then slowly started to introduce a new food, Nature's Variety Instinct Chicken (our other dog does great on this) and the diarrhea returned. Back to chicken and rice and he was normal.
This has naturally persisted, along with classical symptoms of increased water intake. To address his pancreatitis, he was placed on a low fat prescription GI diet (Royal Canin), which I have maintained, but I supplement with canned food (fat < 5%, protein 5-10%) and home cooked food (chicken/sweet potato/pumpkin/green beans/mixed vegetables/rice/flaxseed meal).
I would be concerned, especially if she gets in the trash. Sge could have a gastritis, pancreatitis or a blockage. All can be dangerous. Is she pooping, eating, any vomiting? Try a bland diet of chicken and rice. If she seems worse, you will have to take her to the Vet.
Three days later he was back to vomiting and not eating and we were back at the vet- this time she told us it could be pancreatitis or an obstruction. We treated for pancreatitis (fluids/steroids/antibiotic). Again, better for three days, then back to vomiting and not eating. Went back a few days later for more of the same. Doctor says x-rays might show an obstruction- might not- and that would mean surgery- which we can't afford.
Then on day 3 give 1 tablespoon of either special canned diet ID formula or the boiled chicken and rice. Continue 1 tablespoon a day for 3 days. Then re check with vet. Keep on special pancreas diet for life. No fat foods..no snacks like popcorn etc. Only dog food that is low in fat. It can be a long hard road with a dog with pancreatitis. I know. I've been there and now going thru it again.
The last 25% of the diet should be some type of grain, either oatmeal, rice or barley. Of all the items in the diet, it is most important to thoroughly cook the grains for easy digestibility.
Supplementary enzymes should be added so that the pancreas doesn't have to work to produce as many as it normally would to cause digestion. Her pancreas has taken such a beating over this that you basically want to let it take the rest of her life off, or at least do as little as possible.
Rice is not really good for a diet, because it's very starchy (simple carb) and affects blood sugar very quickly. If you can switch to brown rice, which is whole grain, that would be much better.
My last two blood tests have been normal, but I have read that one may still have mild pancreatitis with normal enzyme levels. The gastro thinks that since my first pancreatitis was so severe there may be some scarring which has led to an enzyme deficiency. He prescribed digestive enzymes which I have been taking for a month and a half with every meal. At first this seemed to help but lately seems to increase the burning sensation.
He is in the later stages of kidney failure, I should find out tomorrow how far along he is. Any suggestions on safe foods to introduce? He was eating Hills Diet GD, but now he turns his nose up at everything I try.
It seemed from his posture that his tummy was painful so I checked the yard and found that he had some diarrhea too. I took him to the vet and they checked for pancreatitis, (neg) did a blood panel (normal) and abdominal x-rays (showed nothing). So I took him home after they gave him in antibiotic shot and pain relief. I was told to bring him back tomorrow if he is not better for an ultrasound. The vet said they may need to "cut" him open and look around.

With these results, the vet so far has diagnosed PANCREATITIS and I am now following a strict dietary regimen for her. He also gave her an injection for the vomiting (which has now subsided) and Convenia (since the skin problem persists). I advised that periodic whole body tremors go on with her (a couple to a few a day lasting just seconds; never collapses like a full seizure).
I no longer eat fatty, spicy or acidic foods, and I have cut alcohol and caffeine out of my diet completely. My current diet is now oatmeal for breakfast. Raisins, a turkey on wheat sandwich (no other toppings) and a pudding for lunch. For dinner I generally eat either brown rice or a plain baked potato, grilled chicken and zucchini.
I have been on this diet for two weeks straight.
I have diarrhea and loose motions for three weeks following, I believe, some bad chicken. My doctor has told me to eat a bland diet with no vegetables, fruit or dairy for two weeks to help the irritability. I am eating steamed chicken and rice and white bread and porridge made with water. Is there anything else I can eat, I am finding it very limiting and dry chicken and rice is really difficult to swallow. Do you think I could eat soya products and drink rice milk and almond milk.
That seems to make sense, but from what I’ve found on multiple Web sites, Uncle Ben’s Original Parboiled rice has a much lower Glycemic Load than brown rice (14 vs. 18). Uncle Ben’s Original Parboiled rice is White Rice.
Also, from what I’ve read on multiple sites, pumpernickel bread has a lower Glycemic Load count than whole grain breads (5 vs. 9). Pumpernickel is not a “whole grain” bread.
ve avoided all carbs and sugar on the advice of dr google, I started to suspect it could be Pancreatitis as a side effect of the hand foot mouth virus.
This diet seems to help, I barely feel the pain now, it comes and goes.
I have also been peeing a lot, but I've been drinking a lot of water. Not necessarily because I'm super thirsty, but when I'm not feeling well, I try to drink a lot of water.
