WELL THIS IS ALL VERY NEW AND UNPLEASANT FOR ME. I DID NOT REALIZE HOW MANY PEOPLE THIS EFFECTS. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. I JUST HAD A WEEKS STAY IN THE HOSPITAL FOR PANCREATITIS. I DID EVERY TEST UNDER THE SUN, BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND A CAUSE. I DO NOT DRINK, I DO NOT HAVE GALLSTONES, AND MY TRIGLYCERIDE LEVEL IS NORMAL. I'M LOST BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT I CAN AND CAN'T HAVE TO EAT.

I had ( still have her) a dog that had pancreatitis, she had it the same time she was ill with IMHA, so I don't know what they did to help her. I will tell you that your dog needs to be on low fat food. I would get Hills/ Science Diet Light to start off, most treats have too much fat so stay away from them. I would cook up chicken breast ( it's low fat) with some rice, both are easy on the stomach.

I do have chronic pancreatitis. I now use Creon with every meal/snack I eat to have the digestive enzymes to use the food I eat. I have no dietary restrictions other than to avoid foods that make me feel sick. I was tested for bacterial overgrowth, lactose/sugar/gluten intolerance and nothing rang any bells, plus a bunch of other nasty tests. Check with your doctor or primary about the route you need to take.

an inflammatory condition of the pancreas that results in anorexia, lethargy due to abdominal pain etc. It is harder to diagnose in cats then dogs. An anorexic cat is suceptible to develpoing a secondary case of fatty liver disease and when that happens a feeding tube needs to be placed.

Am again suffering from similiar symptoms. Hospital told me not to eat till I saw family doctor. He told me not to eat for 3 days, drink water only. Symptoms got better starting eating carbs after that. 8months later and similiar symptoms, fatigue, bloating. Shall I assume the liquid diet for a few days? Not sure what the doctor or hospital will do other than tell me that and don't want to waste 12 hours in the ER again, let alone the cost. Thanks.

My dog went through a horrible pancreatitis attack for 2 months, along with a bacterial complication that was stopping the attack from going away, but the day my vet and I figured out how to get his pancreas to go back to normal and for him to stop getting diarrhea...my dog ended up hurting his kidney again. It's been about a week now of lots of water drinking and lots of peeing. No vomiting, however he is getting very lethargic and lost his appetite yesterday.

I also have bloating and major pain when I eat. My abdomen gets hard and feels very extended. The pain is now going up my shoulder blade and into my hip. Can you tell me if I should worry about having chronic pancreatits or pancreatic cancer?

I had severe case of acute pancreatitis this past spring. (Docs have no idea what caused it.) My digestion has changed in a strange way. If I get too hungry or wait too long between meals, sometimes my epigastric center will hurt. It stops immediately if I eat (not drink). Anything. I'm assuming this is some sort of GERD. Never, ever had any kind of GERD issues or digestives. before. Of note, I do have a "low functioning" gallbladder.

In order to prevent the rise of lipase, you should pay attention to your diet in daily life, do not eat fried foods, also do not eat foods with high fat content. It is best to eat some fresh fruits and vegetables, and you can change your eating habits according to the specific situation.

So the gave her something to put her to sleep.we trying to figure out what to give her to eat that wont cause pain..

Final impression is FOCAL PANCREATITIS ( and a question mark ?). My GI doc suggested me to eat small meals 6 times a day. Can any body tell me is it a chronic pancreatits ? My amylase and lipase levels came normal. I still have mild pain after eating.

The smell also changes based on what I eat. I was diagnosed with inflammation, which is what pancreatitis is. Sugar most definitely makes it worse.

My girlfriend's dog just turned 11. He is a yorkie, is bline and is diabetic. Almsot a month ago he got over pancreatitis. Everything was fine until yesterday when now he won't eat and what he does he throws up and today had a little blood in it. Could it be the same thing again so soon?

I have had what my gastroenterologist calls mild pancreatitis several times in the last few years. What can I do to prevent the pancreatitis from re-occurring? Is there a specific diet? My doctor just says, "bed rest, lots of fluids, a light diet." I'm not sure what "a light diet" means. Since I already eat light (6 VERY small meals a day - due to my many intestinal surgeries), I don't know what more I can do.

According to the National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse" "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.

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.

It is the same exact symtoms as last time so i really dont need to pay a couple hunred dollars for them to tell me what i already know. Will it just go away after a couple days maybe after the cat food works its way out of his system?

After he comes home he must be on a very low-fat diet, since foods that are high in fat can be a cause of pancreatitis. Dogs that eat a lot of human food are more susceptible than dogs who eat strictly dog food. Fatty human food will not CAUSE pancreatitis in a healthy pancreas, but so many breeds today are overbred (and pit bulls are one of the most overbred breeds out there next to labs) that they have problems that nobody even realizes they have until something like this happens.

he went out drinking one night,heavily i might add,woke up and he said it felt like someone had stabbed him in his left belly/rib area,,he literaly had to crawl to his truck and drive to the hospital!!! simple blood tests for high amalayes/lipse showed his problem,,and a ct scam and ultrasound confermed it. he since has had to have part of his remocved,has been put on enzymes to help digest his food exct. usualy if this is something you get from drinking too much alcohol,,youll know it!!!

They had to give her steroids to stop the vomiting, does this mean she will always have the pancreatitis? Or is this a one time thing? I know not to let her eat anything but her dog food diet but I am still worried... Any thoughts?

They can take your amylase and lipsase levels and tell you if it is pancreatitis. It is not a good idea to eat or drink if you are having an attack since that will stimulate your pancrease more and you want it to rest.

The reason for her condition is Alcohol (sad to say). The Doctors seem to just think that she is ok, but to me she is NOT. The vomitting part is terrible, how can she get better if what ever she eats she brings up?? Thank you very much for your reply.

My surgeon called me today saying he was surprised by my MRCP results as they did an MRI when I was having the gallbladder surgery and no ducts were dilated at that time. Said he was taking my films to a GI doc to see what they had to say as the next step and go from there. Makes me very nervous. I'm hoping the dilatation will go down on its own as an ERCP really scares me in setting off an acute attack. Pain today and yesterday and not sure what from.

Hi I am 19, I am being diagnosed with Chronic Pancreatitis, We have been waiting for a specialist to come to our Mayo hospital to do a EUS on me, which is scheduled for Friday. My GI is super confident in his diagnosis, and so are we this is really the only disease I match up to 100%. In my case this is a rare diagnosis because I am so young and obviously my lifestyle habits have not called this. I have been sick for almost 3 years now undiagnosed and miserable.
