Guest guest Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Hi I read your story did you know belemia can cause pancreatitis. I don't know if your drs have told you that but ive heard it before. I'm 17 I know someone around your age that is going to have a total pancreatectomy auto islet cell transplant. I already had it done last year and nothing but good results don't get me wrong I had some bumps on the way but made it through. But the dr that does this surgery is in Minnesota if you have any questions ask I can try and give you some advice I been living with it for 10 yrs now. Its almost hard to believe. But you manage. Ill keep you in my prayers. Sincerely, p.s. Pancreatitis doesn't make you skinny at least not in my case and trying to watch your weight with CP is asking for an attack if you diet the wrong way. And another thing you should try and eat more a day like bread to spread it out through the day with all your medications your gonna kill your liver if you don't eat more. That might help you with some pain. Another thing is when your in allot of pain try the brat diet. Which is all your whites, bread, rice, pasta I know your trying to watch your weight but your health is more important and the pancreas works less with that kind of food. Well I hope those were a few pointers for you. Anymore questions ask. But don't worry about your weight until your better foremost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
