Hi,

By congential your doctor basically means heredity or a defect that

you had at birth. A significant number of people with pancreatitis

have defects in the ducts servicing the pancreas. One such defect

that is a cause of pancreatitis is called a pancreas divisum. Some

of our members have that kind of defect and can explain in more

detail.

You could be running the low grade temp for a number of reasons. It

could be you were running one before the EUS be didn't notice it

yet. Or it could be that you started running it after the EUS

possibly because the procedure may have caused a bacterial

infection. It can also be associated with your pancreatitis.

Best of luck,

Bert

Thanks Deanna

Currently I am not on anything for n/v. My GI Dr. said that I had the temp

back in the 1st of October when I had my first consult. He wants to do some

autoimmune testing for Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis. My brother has

rheumatoid arthritis real bad. I never thought of any thing like that.

THanks,

website.

If the link doesn't work, copy and paste the whole string of text,

including any that has wrapped to the next line.
