Keri,

Welcome to our group. I'm sorry for the reason that you sought

us out, but thankful that you found us. We've got a great group of

people here that will be happy to help you through any rough

spots in your continued journey with CP.

How fortunate that at least your doctor understands so much

about this disease, many of our member's don't even get that

kind of support from their own personal GI's in regard to

understanding about a & l levels.

You can add me to that list of people whose a & l levels have

decreased. Mine were actually below normal when I was

hospitalized in March. I've lost all pancreas function entirely, so

that's understandable, but even before this they wouldn't elevate

during an attack.

Feel free to jump right in and ask questions or share your advice

anytime.

With hope and prayers,

Heidi
