Hi I received a note from my Dr today saying that my lipase levels are slightly elevated 71 and the cut off is 60. She's ordered an ultrasound of the abdomen tomorrow to check my pancreas. I'm very stressed about this as I have had some right sided mild abdominal discomfort and my bowel motions have been fairly light (tan colour for years) unless I eat something with a dark colouring. My digestion isn't good due to the CFS. I haven't got pancreatitis.
Of course my first thought is pancreatic cancer, maybe it's very early. I'm wondering if anyone else had had raised Lipase levels without having anything sinister show up on an ultrasound. My partner is coming with me so that's good. I'm trying not to panic and to stay calm although I feel awful inside. This is the last thing I need after a stressful week :( Thanks for reading this x
