hello! Just now happened on this forum.I went to the hospital with a stone stuck clogging my pancreas. By the time they got the tests back and diagnosed me with pancreatitis etc.,the stone passed. But that didn't stop them from sticking a tube down my nose etc. .Next tests were drasticly closer to normal, and later normal.But now I have twinges of pain where my pancreas is occasionally.I've been doing natural gallbladder flushes. There is a disscusion board just for people with pancreatitis I saw.And there is a product called Propancreas to naturally support your pancreas, I think it was at sensiblehealth.com .

Three years ago I was diagnosed with 95% chance of pancreatic cancer since I had painless jaundice, but it was proved to be acute pancreatitis by surgery (the Whipple procedure). Had many endoscopic procedures none of which were conclusive. I am quite well recovered now with 20% of the pancreas and bile duct removed, the gall bladder and more plumbing.

Diet is fairly open, although too many heavy oils or sweets is not good. I don't eat much dairy, fast once a week on juices, and regulary sprout and juice wheat and barley grass (the latter is especially recommended for the pancreas so I drink a shot 3-4 times a week.) My Doctor now reports all my levels - blood sugar, liver panel and so on are excellent, cholesterol is the lowest in the county!

I rarely have a painful attack if I overindulge in chocolate or something for an extended period. Now I'm working with an acupuncturist for deeper healing on many levels. He indicated that omega-3 oils fish oils) are indicated for organ regeneration so I'm getting back into that a bit now. I also practice various forms of healing including affirmation and Reiki. It's amazing how looking death in the face will open you up to new healing methods. ;-)

Good Luck, David
