Hi Chrissie!

Now here's a lovely topic to begin with....steatorrhoea!! (Surely

it could be brought into some book on great chat-up lines or how to

make small talk at parties!) Well, do you take enzymes? I'm sorry if

you've already told us this but, as I've said before, my brain needs

as much help as my panc! I have found that for 99% of the time,

Creon keeps me reasonably in order. It's a huge improvement on pre-

Creon days. My specialist, as you may remember, advocates taking

high doses of enzymes to allow for as normal a diet as possible. I

have read similar advice from docs on some other sites but I know

there are many who still advocate the traditional low-fat diet. I

never eat fried foods or anything high in fat but neither do I weigh

out the grams of fat anymore, as I used to do before my specialist

increased the Creon dose.

Could it be that other things, such as certain fruits or veggies

also irritate your gut? The problem is that you can eat something

one day and be OK and the next it causes trouble. I REALLY

sympathise about having to go off to the toilets frequently. That's

one of things I have detested about this disease over the years.

Thank Heaven the Creon now helps.

Now I can't remember your other questions!!??

I'm not sure about Boo Koo???? Do you mean the French for " a lot "

which is " beaucoup " , ie " beaucoup de questions " - " a lot of

questions " or is it some expression I've never heard of or someBODY

I've never heard of? Now you'll probably have a good laugh at my

expense...if it's something obvious that I haven't recognised! Do

you perhaps mean " Boo Hoo " , as if you were crying? PLEASE enlighten

me....I feel even more stupid than usual!

Love,

Fliss

Take care Chrissie and don't do too much at work.
