Help - i am really scared that I have chronic pancreatitis. I am just so afraid. I have all the symptoms and used to drink far too much for about 4 years (about a bottle of wine a day). I don;t drink like that any more. I just know that I have it, and that it will take years to diagnose.
I have had bloods and ultrasound - both clear. But they only show up acute pancreatitis, and not chronic. There are so many people on the internet that have it, but it took ages to diagnose, with loads of negative tests first!
I am referred to a gastro consultant, but i have not had an appointment through yet and it has been 3 weeks. I feel like I am going insane with worry, and I feel like no one is taking me seriously.
But the worst thing is that I will have my life ruined and it will all be my own fault.
I'm sorry i'm in mid panic
does anyone have this condition or has worried about this condition?
My symptoms have been changing and are all gastric related, but really fit in with pancreatitis. If it wasn;t for the previous alcohol, i wouldn;t be so worried, but i hate the fact that it is all my fault. i am so stupid.
