Need some creon clues

[Guest guest]

Happy New Year ya'll. Hope this one will be better then the last.

But thats not why I posted. I am just having a fit with the creon.

I am considering asking the doc to switch me to something else. The

gas is just killing me. At least that what I think it is. I have

taken it before meals, with my first bite, have taken it a little

into the meal. The other day I forgot to take it until the end of

the meal and I ended up throwing up all night. Felt like the food

was stuck in my stomache and couldn't move but just kept building

all this gas pressure as it broke down. But no matter what if I eat

more then a banana or something else super light I get the worse

pain.

This just started a week or two ago. When I was in the hospital and

staying in the hotel (especially the hotel room service) I had no

problems taking it and eating. I ate well in the hotel too...

bookoo cakes and deserts to boot. They were so fabulously elegant I

couldn't resists. Well now, a boiled egg and toast and I am keeling

over 30 minutes~ later. Yesterday we had News Years at my SIL's and

I had a great time until I ate, then boom, I got cold sweats and

thought I would throw up and we had to leave early. Felt terrible,

physically as well as emotionally. I hated to make my family leave

they were having such a nice time. I'm not eating any thing

strange, just the same ole stuff.

Also I wonder how and what is broken down and absorbed. I have

forgotten take it with a snack and dont take it with coffee or other

beverages but my sugar still goes up. So it has me wondering how

are the things we consume broken down and absorbed. I'm not making

sucrose , galactose and lactose (etc) anymore, no panc, so how did

they get broken down and absorbed into my blood stream to reflect an

increase in blood sugar. Interesting huh.

Well any input ya'll can give me on this would be appreciated. I

have had cp a long time and thought I could handle not having a

pancreas anymore but evidently its a whole heck of a lot harder then

I thought. I just need to absorb the nutrients so that I can regain

my strength. I take a MVI but its not enough; I am still so very

weak. Loosing a lot of weight too, but thats still ok right now, I

could stand to loose another 25 pounds or so to get to the weight

the government said we should be at for my height. Have lost over

10 pounds since the surgery though, so thats a bit much when trying

to recover.

Wow, wrote a novel, sorry. Look forward to hearing from ya'll and

hope every one is doing well. FYI, think the ict is kicking in

slowly but surely, my sugars are doing great. Still taking insulin

but very little, cool huh!

Warmly,

Chrissy
