Experiences with

Acute pancreatitis

I am 81 and have battled acute pancreatitis, removal of a "gall bladder full of rocks, the size of a submarine sandwich", then undiagnosed chronic pancreatitis and some kind of bile problem, for 49 years. I've begged and pleased for help and been refused.

I have depression and anxiety(I know alcohol doesn’t help). 3 acute pancreatitis attacks last year and one a month ago. Had ultrasound which was clear about 5 weeks ago. Like a twit I have relapsed again. What worries me most is the mild itchiness, dry skin and nausea.

. • In May 2017, I suffered a severe acute pancreatitis due to medication (Janumet, sitagliptin). Started vigilance of pancreas with regular MRIs using Gadolinium-Based Contrast Administration (GBCA, is a ferromagnetic element, along with iron, cobalt and nickel).

We have top pancreatitis experts as advisors and share expert information on chronic and recurrent acute pancreatitis on our website. I am looking forward to getting to know the members of this community!

Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with PA about 3 years ago following a terrible episode of acute pancreatitis followed by gallbladder surgery. I have struggled badly with fatigue, brain fog and anxiety and retired early as a result.

My son was admitted to I C U with severe acute pancreatitis. He was on a ventilator and had lung failure. Fortunately he survived. Now at home recovering. Often he is either hot or cold and perspires profusely during the night. Could anyone tell me of any similar experiences please

Was hospitalized two weeks ago with acute pancreatitis. Long story short, I will have my gallbladder removed on Friday. Spoke at length with my hemotologist and have no real concerns. Just wondering if anyone wants to share his/her experience of surgery with MPN. Thanks

He had every infection and bug there is out there, including CMV virus, he had a very severe case of acute pancreatitis, his liver failed, he was on a feeding tube for 3 months. He had to learn to do everything from the beginning as the muscle wastage was phenomenal.

Speak to your GP or seek urgent medical care if you get: Acute pancreatitis - nausea/vomiting, diarrhoea, indigestion/heartburn, jaundice, abdominal tenderness, tachycardia, fever. Go to A&E if you suspect this! Cushings - too much cortisol.

However he said that if PMR is diagnosed, there is a problem with me taking corticosteroids, as in the past I had idiopathic acute pancreatitis. For this reason, even ibuprofen, which has been helpful in getting me moving, is not advised. He will refer me to a rheumatologist for advice.

He has been in hospital with severe pain three or four times and acute chronic pancreatitis was diagnosed so he also takes Creon. He has had four scans which show no cancer But still the pain persists.

On that occasion I was left to my own devices with acute pancreatitis diagnosed by mri during menopause. Believe me please because like all of the problems big and small we live with it's often made even worse by lack of care or understanding.

This has all happened since January after being took in to get my gallbladder removed then j was back in hospital in February as I also have acute pancreatitis and was in pain but anyways was in hospital for 3 weeks had over 20 clexine injections in my arms which I ended up taking a reaction too and

He was admitted a few weeks ago due to extreme weight loss for either feeding tube and/ or CT scan Scan showed Acute on Chronic Pancreatitis and apparently it would not have mattered what diet he had he was not being nourishedas his enzymes weren’t being produced Now home on enzymes in capsule form and

I still have lots of symptoms of hypo ( fatigue, weight gain, dry skin, hair loss including eyebrows, muscle pain etc) but also worried as health has worsened, since diagnosis of thyroid have had breast cancer, gallstones, acute pancreatitis, now prediabetic!

However, I have been in hospital with acute pancreatitis and liver problems due to a blocked bile duct. On a zero fat diet and awaiting the results of an MRI scan to inform the surgeon's decision about which bits to chop out.

Also went through menopause at 45, developed gall stones which were left untreated and developed into acute pancreatitis so needed emergency treatment two years ago and they finally removed my gall bladder!
