Kris, I've been searching through my files for this information, and finally came across one site: www.blue.vm.temple.edu/~pathphys/gi/chronic_pancreatitis.html Here's only a portion of what it says. ***************** Laboratory evaluation * Amylase and Lipase * Serum amylase and lipase levels are elevated at the onset of an acute exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis * Amylase value returns to normal within a few days, and the lipase elevation persists a few days longer *************** You may wish to go to the website and read the whole article. I hope this helps. If I can find any more relative information in my other research, I'll post the websites for you. With love, hope and prayers, Heidi Heidi H.
