Pancreatitis/Edema

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I am new as far as asking any questions but have been

checking the emails looking for information. I have CP

with a pseudocyst on the head of the pancreas. I was

diagnosed a year ago last March. Found out yesterday I

now have Type 2 diabetes. Was told I have stenosis and

edema of the bowel. Also a small cyst has formed on

the tail of the pancreas. The tail portion or half of

my pancreas is dead. Have alot of pain days but do

have some good days. I am on the following:

1. Pantoloc for acid control

2. Effexor for depression

3. Ativan for anxiety

4. Prochlorperazine for nausea

5. Dilaudid for pain

I was wondering if anyone had any info regarding Edema

of the bowel? I live in Canada and there is no

specialist in this province so we have to travel to

see one. My GP is contacting the specialist who had

wanted to operate and connect the bowel to the duct.

Not sure what he will want to do now but I am very

resistant to having such a major surgery after all the

complications i had during many hospital stays. Any

info or insite would be appreciated. Thanks.

We must not allow the clock and the calendar to blind us to the fact that each

moment of life is a miracle and mystery.
