Guest guest Posted March 7, 2001 Report Share Posted March 7, 2001 Welcome Sharon, So sorry you've got this stuff, glad you found us. These people are amazingly helpful and it's nice to know that SOMEONE understands you. Feel free to vent, share info, request info or anything else here. We are all willing to help you. I'm in CA and I'm 30. I've had documented attacks (somewhere arround 19-20) and was finally diagnosed as chronic in 1998, though he said it had gone chronic from some ERCP film of one done in 1997. I've had my gallbladder removed (what a surprise), no stents - they couldn't get any in). I've just recently started having daily pain and nasuea (sp.). So, welcome to the family.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2001 Report Share Posted March 16, 2001 Sharon, I had a papillotomy yesterday. Still pretty sore today. It didn't work for you? Did it work for even a little while? I am sore from the procedure, but I don't have the pain that I did. Thanks, Colorado Debi I am 43 years old and live 20 miles outside Birmingham, Alabama. I've had chronic pancreatitis since 1996, but my problems started in 1991. In the past I've had my gallbladder removed, surgical spincteroplasty, pancreatic papillotomy and too many stents to count. <br clear=all><hr>Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at <a href= " http://explorer.msn.com " >http://explorer.msn.com</a><br></p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
