Guest guest Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Dear Sonja, I don't get faint, but definitely have chills & my legs hurt when I have this, despite I have tons of clothing on & under blankets!! I have had C. pancreatitis with the fat malabsorption or steatorrhea for over 20 years now & in the last 3 years this problem has really gotten bad! My body temp is normally 97 or lower, never 98.6 anymore & despite the doctors act like it's not from the greasy, smelly, gold stools I excrete daily, all the nutrionists say it is from the essential fatty acid deficiency. I replace them with the good oils like Flaxseed, borage oil, etc. but this problem is getting worse! I'm glad you brought it up, cause last night I thought I would die! I am also very weak most of the time & very little helps except hot baths & hot liquids or exercise, which is not what you do when you are trying to sleep!!! I've got it now.......I hope you don't have C.P. but you may have malabsorption from something else. I hope I'm wrong.......best of luck to you & have a stool tested for fecal fat. Sincerely, Glentzes in ton, S.C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
