Guest guest Posted September 27, 2002 Report Share Posted September 27, 2002 I am pretty new to this group but it kind of scares me. I have had to go to the ER three times with acute pancreatitis. The last time my amylase were 8000. I had to have a syst drained and was in the hospital for three months. What scares me is, reading what many say about there condition it makes me worry that I am only kidding myself if I do not think I will have another attack and have to go back to the ER, Three doctors have told me that what I ate did not cause the attack. They kind of think it was my blood pressure med. which has been changed. Right now I am pretty pain free accept low enegry and pain from the surgery to drain the syst. Did many of you start out like I have??? I am also on digestive enzymes. I take three with meals and am suppose to take three with snacks but I do not usually with snacks because that seems like too many. I would like any information I could get to understand what is in my future. I am sure my pancreas has been damaged but would like to think I am over this.
