Reactive hypoglycemia
I’m two and a half years post McKeon’s oesophagectomy and have continuous early and late dumping which is manageable having been prescribed
Creon
- which has made a huge difference.

Creon
We were told by a dietitian that you can’t take too much of
Creon
. It helps you digest your food and get some goodness from it.

Hello
I’m on pain meds and pain blocks and was on
creon
but ins stopped paying for it and had to go on another brand. I’m just thankful they pay for something. It seems to work just as well. My cp is mostly under control. Glad to have this forum.

The complex world of pancreatitis
I’m on
Creon
x 5 years, pain patches since December and they are now recommending surgery that blocks the nerves to the pancreas now so I stop feeling the pain during attacks.

Elevated mch and mchc
I had posted about a change in the need to inject once I had started taking
creon
/artificial enzymes. I started
creon
in Feb and realised that I did not need to self inject as much. It seemed a month between injections was fine. Tingling in hands was my trigger to inject.

MRI scan of lower bowel for B12? Confusing phone consultation with gastroenterologist
The urine sample was fine but the stool sample showed low elastase and I was prescribed
Creon
/aritficical enzymes last february. These made an immediate impact and my bowel movements are a lot better but not 100% - I will try taking more
creon
to see if that helps.

Deficiency improved drastically
Mid Feb, I was prescribed
Creon
to take with my food as gastro tests discovered low faecal elastase which indicates issues with enzymes in the pancreas used to process food. Since taking
Creon
, my need for b12 injections changed dramatically and immediately.
