Guest guest Posted October 23, 2004 Report Posted October 23, 2004 Hi my name is Liana and I have been suffering from Acute Pancreatitis for the past 5 years. I'm currently 25 years old, married to a wonderful husband (we'll be celebrating 5 years in Dec.) and I have 2 sons, one is 2 years old my other son is will be celebrating his 1st heavenly birthday in Dec (lived only 11 hours due to a condition called Potter's Syndrome). These past 5 years have not been easy for me. I hate feeling sick all the time! The doctor's can't explain to me why I'm having so much pain....when I don't drink alcohol,nor smoke, etc. In the past 5 years I've had 3 attacks. The most recent was this past Feb, I was in the hospital for 2 weeks. Last week I got an MRCP done and it came back normal. This coming up Monday I have to get an upper GI done and a test called Gastric Emptying Study. We'll see what that shows. I had my gallbladder removed 2 years ago and I thought that was going to better my condition, but no. IT'S SO FRUSTRATING! Some days I'm fine all day and some days I'm in so much pain. Anyway, I look forward getting to know all your stories through this group. Thanks again for listening. Sincerely, Liana Quote
