Hi, my 8 year old son had a distal pancreatectomy due to trauma from

a bicycle accident last month. Three days ago I took him to the ER

due to excrutiating pain in his right abdomin and back. Xray's, CT

scans, blood & urine tests were all normal. Three days in the

hospital and surgeons, gi specialist and pediatritian can't pinpoint

cause of pain. We were sent home with enzyme therapy & diet

restrictions. Is it possible to have pancreatitis with a normal CT

scan & amylase levels? What about pain relief (at home) for children?

It took many doses and 4 hours before relief with morphine in the ER.

Regarding meds and food, what should we avoid? Any help would be

wonderful! Thank you! Christy
