Guest guest Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 HI, I am going through old emails because I was in the hospital and I saw your message. I am new to the group. Please tell me about your son's pancreatitis and removal of the pancreas/ I have CF, am 50 years old and have been very ill with pancreatic. I never took enzymes until now. My lipase was over 6000 when I went into the hospital. I had just started on TPN two weeks before my admission. I was sure that I would not come home and my husband was very sure he told me that he thought I would not make it. I did and have gained about four or five pounds. The nausea and indigestion along with the pain has been the worse. They had me on clear liquids for three weeks and that did not help in gaining weight. Have to take laxatives because of the CF and sometimes have the diarrhea. I try and stay hydrated. Please write me back and tell me more about your son's symptoms and treatment. Where do you go for cf care. I live in west virginia and go to the university. I have for about 15 years. I have not met anyone that has cf and chronic pancreatitis/. Take care and I will pray for your son and family. Deb West Virginia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
