To Ralph re dx chronic pancreatitis

[Guest guest]

My CT of abdomen comes back normal too, the CT scan will not show the

more subtle form of this disease, like scarring or fibrosis! The

only accurate test is the more invasive endoscopy, the one with the

long needle going all the way down to view the pancreas with camera!

So until you've had that, I would not rule out pancreatitis. Good

luck & remember that there are many different types & causes of

chronic pancreatitis. I've had mine for over 26 years now &

diagnosed myself with it & fat malabsorption long before the doctors

did, so keep on pushing them for the right tests, ok? Sicerely,
