Saw Specialist Yesterday to Eilleen

Eilleen,

An ERCp won't give you CP. It can give you a case of Acute Pancreatitis though.

Thats different. Chronic takes awhile to get to. Alot of people have several

episodes of AP and never get CP and live quite normal lives. I will keep my

fingers crossed for you and keep you in my prayers.

Hi All,

He does not think I have CP. He thinks it is a combo of spaastic

colon, stomach problems and costocondritis and other muscle problems

on my left side.

This would be a BLESSING if that is true!!!!!

But he is doing an ERCP onme this Tuesday.

I'm terrified of this procedure due to what some of you have

experienced. Especially if there is not any CP, couln't this give me

CP???

Your thoughts?

Hi Sandy!

I guess that is what I am afriad of. An acute attack that can be

damaging. I have read of people getting them so bad kidneys shut

down, etc.

He said it's a small chance that would happen and since he doesn't

think it's my pancreas causing my pain, it won't happen. I'm not sio

sure.

I'm terrified!
