The whole 2 weeks before I fainaly got diagnosed (after at least 10

years of symptoms) I complained to my partner of a terrible back ache

(on my left side just behind where the pain from my pancreas ussually

centers). I now know it is related. I have that darn back pain almost

all the time now and it increases with the " front " pian. On 2 ocasions

it became so bad it felt like someone shot me with a gun and it

exited through my back! I am surprised to find out that alot of the

things I have experienced in the last few years can be traced to

Pancreatitis. I cna't beleive I was actually glad to finally get a

diagnosis. I would love to go into denial and believe this is just

another misdiagnosis too!!! Wrap yourselves in warm light of love!!!
