Guest guest Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Hi Sandy- I actually requested that article about the endo and pancreatitis from my doctor today, and he is looking for it. I went to my OB/GYN today and no surprise here, my endo is back again with a vengence. I had a lap last October and he lazered the endo. Which makes me wonder...I wasn't hospitalized after that procedure in October until July 2005...not that I didn't have pain, it just seemed " more manageable " than it does now. So the endo slowly came back, so did my pain that I can't seem to get on top of. Ummm....things that make me wonder. And I want to ask...is your pain worse during your cycle? Lately, if I end up in the hospital, more than half the time I am a day or two into my cycle. For so long I fought that connection, mostly because I didn't want the doctors to label it as PMS...now that they saw diagnosed as CP and proven it, I want them to figure out what and why of the connection to not only help me but other women that seem to have the same problem. I need to make a decision in the future...have my uterus removed or keep it. My problem is, estrogen caused an acute flare of pancreatitis that landed me in the hospital. So hormones don't mix well with my pancreas. Bottom line... I firmly believe that there is a connection with endo and pancreatitis, at least for me. Now if we could just prove it and figure out an answer! Hugs, Suzi B. Colorado Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
