Great video, very informative. However, being a sufferer of 9 attacks of acute pancreatitis, and now a 39-year-old woman with chronic pancreatitis and diabetes, I feel you should stress more that, while it may be the most common cause, not all patients are alcoholics, and it would be nice to not be faced with that judgement right out of the gate. I have experienced many doctors, nurses, and EMTs treating me with extreme prejudice without knowing my history. My bouts of acute pancreatitis are caused by a genetic lipid disorder. My triglycerides tend to increase, regardless of diet, until they are 4000+. I have needed numerous rounds of plasmapheresis. The problem for me lies in the eye-rolling and name-calling and the questioning of my husband, "what is she on?!" When you are in that MASSIVELY EXTREME PAIN, it's hard to explain your medical history. Please don't jump to conclusions. The tests will tell you if they asked for this or not. Just be professional in treating patients, that's all I ask.

Chronic calcified pancreatitis is never ending. I am on a nose feeding tube because of it. Quality of life sucks, but all in all I Love Life. The breathing issue sucks too. I also deal with the last stage of MS. So my plate is full. Every day I just fight to live the best I can. I need a vacation lol

[conciousenergy]

Where's the explanation of acute pancreatitis due to gallstones?

[naveendhiman]

@Osmosis please share, what food should be given to the patient.

[khalilahthevoicepurnell]

Not always about alcohol or fried foods. I do not drink and now have chronic pancreatitis. It's a pain I do not wish on anyone. I started getting it from Gallstones and had to get my gallbladder removed in 2003 and have been getting pancreatitis consistently since 2003. I hate flare ups and now I have chronic pancreatitis which is horrible often times because we know the pain but often times the enzyme levels will not reflect being up with chronic pancreatitis. The only thing they can do is hospitalized you, give you pain meds in the IV and relax your pancreas over a couple days hoping it hasn't gotten worse. My friend has it bad the pancreatitis started eating away at her pancreas. Where is the cure for this? Smh.

[shermukhammadabdugofurov]

Hello. That’s such a great video. I would like to ask if there is anyone who had experienced with that disease and got cured. I have been suffering from that disease for more than two years. And went to see a lot of doctors but nothing has changed. I feel it is getting worse. I need your help. I would like to write if you know any doctor to recommend.
