Struggling but happy to join

I have had stomach issues a long time. I recently found out that my chronic pancreatitis is severe, due to some specific tests that I took. My Gastroenterologist suggested yesterday that I increase my digestive enzymes. I would be pleased to connect with others that are on the same journey. My emotions and physical health need some more help! Depression and anxiety play a huge part in my story. People praying for me has been very helpful at times. I'm retired and I think I'm staying home too much. I do love like to get out of the house for a little while. Thank you for your support!

Hi Corinne, do try to get out of the house as much as you can. I am disabled so am reliant on my husband but I try to get out 3-4 times a week. I would love to be able to say that I am off out for a walk so enjoy it as much as you can. I have been on Creon for 2 years & I can say I have not been hospitalised during that time so they are doing the job. I no longer drink alcohol & as we never ate much fried food that has not been a problem. I now eat dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate but other than that I find I can eat everything in moderation. I will remember you in my prayers.

Hello and thank you. Yes I try to get out but lately get tired a lot. I have other health issues that thank God te medicines from my Cardiologist helps. Do you live in the United States? It's nice that hear that you are a believer like me. Jesus seems to be at His best when we are at our worst,!
