To Kris & Anyone Else that Has or Can Respond re:-SOD vs. panc pain

[Guest guest]

Hi Kris, thanks for the info. Now what you describe to me is

totally different in some ways than what I get. My pain ALWAYS is

the worst on the right side right under the bottom of my ribs,

radiating either around or boring straight thru to my back. I

sometimes just get the back part of it but it all feels like it's

just sizzling in there. So with me that's where the confusion

is...maybe you get it on the left side primarily because the tail of

your panc has the problems and I get it on the right side because

the head of my panc has the problems? Or am I wrong about that --

the head and tail placement anatomically? Can someone enlighten me

here? I guess I'm still confused about SOD pain vs panc pain.

Sorry for not getting it....but I guess it present so differently

for some people that I just can't apply it to my pain....

thanks to all that respond

P.S. Yes, I'm getting very excited and nervous about my trip next

week to see Dr. Lehman. I'm glad to finally be seeing a doctor that

KNOWS something and yet, I'm deathly afraid of the ERCP with

manometry test!!
