Avatar m tn Can hemorrhoids kill you? I have one and it's causing me to bleed a lot from my rectum. But it stops after a few minutes. But every time I take a dump it makes it bleed again!

Avatar f tn Hello Everyone, I have had Pancreatitis for 13Yrs. Off and on... My question is malabsorption can cause your ribs to cramp, as if you don't have enough Potassium? Can it also be caused by the Pancreas, they hurt bad and there is no warning. How if this is dietary do I absorb when I take enough Ultrase to kill a horse so to speak.
Avatar f tn Can u eat deli meats from the store In the deli if you pregnant just curious?
Avatar f tn I am not trying to make you feel bad, but if you feed her people food while she has pancreatitis you COULD kill her! Dogs are not made to digest human food as we prepare it for ourselves, and the fats in the foods that we eat are horribly bad for even healthy dogs, but they are a death sentence for a dog with pancreatitis. Please contact your vet as soon as you can and tell them what happened and let them take it from there.
Avatar n tn However, my Amylase continues to be elevated and I am concerned, as is my doctor, about chronic pancreatitis leading to pancreatic cancer. I do not drink Alcohol and have not for 20 years. Can you offer any ideas for cause of the pancreatic enzyme elevation and treatments?
Avatar n tn Yes, they just want you to heat it up first to kill any Bacteria that might be on it. For instance, I now get my subs toasted at subway.
Avatar m tn listen,,,if you dont lay completely off the booze,your going to develop pancreatitis,and this will kill you,,,is that something you can understand? i have a buddy who is 37 years old with 2 small children,and hes dieing!! chronic pancreatitis only get worse over time,it starts to digest itself and you need your pancreas!! ibs is something that you deal with all the time,and gardia is a possibility,but easy to pick up on a fecal test...highly doubtfull it was or is that.
Avatar m tn Well, look at your friend's daughter. Her pancreas was damaged, which isn't necessarily pancreatitis, but look where it ended up, she was so damaged she got diabetes. But pancreatitis is a description of an inflamed pancreas, not what caused it, and you can damage your pancreas' ability to manufacture enzymes without getting pancreatitis.
Avatar m tn DO NOT **** AROUND with this. It can kill you. If you have extreme abdominal pain go to the ER. Not a med-stop and ER. I speak from personal experience. I survived it. But some people don't.
Avatar f tn You know I was thinking about my answer and it was way too brief and for this I am sorry. Chronic pancreatitis is at the moment my leading misery. I can't say for sure this is what it is but I can tell you how it went for me. I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis in January of 2008. Please no I am also bipolar. Its important to remember that if you think you are having physical symptoms and it sounds like you are then don't let them tell you its all in your head!

If you can manage that, you take away their teeth and they quit being the life controlling monster that they were. I could have written your post myself some years ago. I let panic and OCD just about take over my life. Do not do that, get help now. A good therapist can help you so much. And you really could benefit by taking some meds for your anxiety. I am scared to death of new meds.
Avatar m tn trigger it or stimulate it on accident without going out of your way to rub it can it kill you? Like what if you have an itch on your neck right on the nerve and you rub it for a few seconds? Is it actually easy to danger yourself from this maneuver? Iv had a cardiology workup with tons of tests and apparently everything's fine.
Avatar m tn You didn't mention the age, but given what you said, and that you used the term 'girl' rather than woman, I'm assuming we are talking college age? I did some searching for you, and found a very helpful link about college drinking and alcohol poisoning: http://www.collegedrinkingprevention.gov/OtherAlcoholInformation/factsAboutAlcoholPoisoning.aspx Pay special attention to the symptoms.
Avatar n tn will hope I didn't make my post way too late... pancreatitis can literally kill...Anyone that has a similar problem with their dog, please look up epi....it could very well save their life.....
Avatar f tn Long term bulimia can result in pancreatitis, which in turn , over time can cause permanent damage to the insulin producing organ. I speak from experience ive been bulimic for 24 years, and am now diabetic due to long term pancreatitis.
