Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 Does any of ya'll with cp work out in a gym with weights? I used to and thought about going back but not sure how it will effect the panc and they aren't cheap. Has anybody ever used herbal or organic pancreatic enzyme supplements? I truly detest the chemicals in my body. I had tried creon, but it made me vomit even more, and I was vomiting blood which scared me terribly. In retrospect, I dont think it was any more then esophageal trauma from the reflux and vomiting, but it was enough to turn the toilet water red and that was scarry. so I stopped them immediately. I did find out later that the doc had told me wrong how to take them. Supposed to be only taken with food; he had said to take them regardless. Does anybody else get scarred to eat? I dont vomit much anymore, but I do suffer with nausea, pain and steattorrhea. I get hungry but am sometimes so cautious to eat that my throat almost feels like it is closing up and I have difficulty swallowing. I cooked a wonderful and healthy dinner last night for my family, first time in over a week; but I could hardly chew it much less swallow. I know that pain is a major deterrent to eating, but I am surprised by the physiological effect that the fear of pain has had on me. Does that happen to anybody else? Is anybody else still working? I dont know if anybody has the answers to these, but if you do I would appreciate any and all responses. Warmly, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
