Due to excessive alcohol consumption, I have been hospitalized with
pancreatitis 3 times. They were all very severe attacks. I've been sober since the last hospitalization, over a year ago. I have constant pain in my back and under my rib cage, where my pancreas is located. My doctor says it should eventually stop hurting but it doesn't seem to be improving. My gallbladder has been removed, my blood work is normal and scans of my pancreas show nothing.
