I have had pancreatitis since 2000, and CP since. For
most of the last year, I have been pain-free, or
little pain. Over the last couple months, I have had
lots of pain!!! Had a CT with contrast done: nothing,
except a new allergy to the contrast. An EUS is
scheduled.
The interesting thing is that there is a Pancreas
Specialist. At Baylor-Dallas. He has agreed 100% with
most os the weird things a CP patient experiences: low
enzymes, pain, pain without significant changes,
yadda, yadda. He did say that it was unusual for me
to have a lowered pain level by increasing my insulin
intake.
So, I wish there is something that shows on the EUS
because I can't increase insulin too much more, and
the pain management doc is FREAKING OUT after all the
garbage of Michael Jackson's death.... no he wasn't
involved, but now he is headed for retirement. Oh,
bumber!
Oh, I am not 100% vegetarian, but I am allergic to
milk and its by-products. So, this just means I do
eat a generally low-fat diet.
If anybody has any thoughts or ideas, they are more
than welcome to let me know them.
