Hello all,

Well it's been a downhill spiral for me. I'm still having investigations for pancreatic pain . Still not eating, ensure shakes only.

very recently I've been experiencing severe pain by my navel. With a prominent painful pulse in my stomach.

Pain radiates to my back & it's been constant. Last night I had sudden pain that brought me to tears, I used a hot water bottle to ease the

tearing sensation, it was throbbing, rapid heart palpitations, Deep, constant pain in my abdomen & this

Back pain!!! It's unbelievably painful.

Ultrasound scan

& CAT scan ordered.

I've had enough of being in pain..

Thought I would keep you all posted. X

Poor you, that's a lot to handle. Sending a virtual hug and hopes that things get easier very soon. Keep in touch when you can x

Horrid for you. I recognise the pain you describe - it hospitalised me when I was on Azathioprine. It is now listed as acute pancreatitis. I have sometimes had a less acute version recently.

Thinking this could be chronic Autoimmune Pancreatitis for me because this can often go with Sjogrens which I have. Worth asking about perhaps? Anyway hugs through cyberspace and fingers crossed you get better soon. 😊

Good morning, apparently whilst I was half asleep in the early hours when I had my checks I asked to be euthanised. 👈🏻👈🏻👈🏻👌🤒

It's been the talk of the morning. I say some crazy things when I'm half asleep 😴 lol xx
