Guest guest Posted October 28, 2002 Report Share Posted October 28, 2002 I liked the one, spotted hotdog?.... Thanks for the info on those responding to having pancreas divisum. Another question? What treatments have you had for this. I so far have had a stint placed then removed and some widening of the duct with not success.

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2002 Report Share Posted October 28, 2002 Walt, I had a sphincteroplasty and it helped for 5 years. Unfortunately, I had already gone chronic so the problems just came back and got worse. A sphincteroplasty is where they widen the ducts surgically. They had to do that for me because my ducts were so small they couldn't get a stent in. Kimber -- Kimber Vallejo, CA hominid2@...
