Info on Lipram (Creon)?

[Guest guest]

Hi to all and I hope everyone is having at least a relatively pain-

free day!! Just wanted to ask if anyone has any info on the

pancreatic enzyme replacement (as it were) via the drug Lipram or

Creon or any other for that matter. Specifically, if it worked well

for you, not well, sort of well and how long it took to be at all

effective? I'm thru almost a week of it, and though the pain has

not gone away, it seems to have diminished a bit....HOWEVER, I've

also been eating nothing but bread products for most of the week as

well. Tonight I'm giving myself an experiment (and actually sitting

here dreading what the results might be in about 20-30 mins after

eating -- seems to be the time it takes to trigger the pain anyway)

and I had a Smart Ones/Weight Watchers sort of an italian angel hair

pasta with some veggies, only 4 gms of fat.....fat's a trigger too

it seems. Anyway, I'd be interested in hearing your experiences

with the pancreatic enzymes.

thanks!!
