Re : Hello, I'm new to the board

Hello Liz,

Welcome to the board. I'm sure you'll meet lots of people who can

help you and share their experience.

I get the impression you haven't yet had a definite diagnosis? This

isn't unusual because the tests for CP are often not definitive and

many types of damage simply don't show up. Some experienced pancreas

consultants make the diagnosis from the symptoms as well as looking

at test results....even sometimes when the tests show very little.

Many of us have waited a long time for our diagnosis. (In my case it

was 52 years!!!!! I'm sure you won't have to wait that long!)

I know how frustrating it is especially when you're told it's all

sorts of other things! Please try not to be too discouraged.

Hopefully something definite will happen soon. Has any treatment

been suggested?

Let us know a little more, perhaps. Welcome!

With good wishes,

Fliss
