[Guest guest]

HI

I have just been ring by my gastro specialist who was in a panic to

say my lipex is 8.82 and ldl is 6.48 should be 3.3.

I have in th elast 2 motnhs had ahead injury, been put on neurontin,

gone off paxil, immovane, and reduced nortryptiline and changed to

oxycodone. I am wonderign if there are links and also with use of

enemas????

I have never had this before. I am curious to know whether there is a

link between pain pancreatitis and cholesterol. does anyone know

been trying to decipher all the scientific stuff.

There is a link between cholesterol and pancreatitis. When I was

first having attacks (idiopathic) my PMD told me the main causes of

pancreatitis are alcohol, drug use and high cholesterol (extremely

high). Then it goes to gallstones etc. I didn't have any of them mine

is genetic (after testing) but I wondered if the cholesterol had

anything to do with it because there is a genetic disposition in my

mothers family to high cholesterol. Just any FYI that there is a link.
