Guest guest Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Hi Heidi, I still do have my intrathecal pump and it seems to be working well with a refill every month or so. It seems I've had to take my breakthru meds pretty regular lately,so I'm wondering if I should ask if they can turn it up some. I've begun having the more specific pain similar to when my duct closed off again in 2000. Dr Cotton wants me to have an MRCP with a special dye that will reveal the condition of my pancreas duct. If it is closed, I may need either an ERCP to open it or go back to surgery. We'll just have to wait and see. I'd feel better if I could just get a little more energy. My doc wants me to try walking on the treadmill at the YMCA and see if I can build my stamina without upsetting the pancreas and causing more pain. I guees we'll see with that too. Be Blessed, Diane TN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
