I had a full whipped done on May 12, 2017, I was put on creon 1200, 2 capsules take before ever meal. Was told to eat a lot of protein, eat whatever I could handle. I was cancer free for a year. Then I was told that I had pancreatic Neuroendocrine tumors. I was put on lanreotide acetate spring shot every 28 day on 10/01/2018, still take creon 2 pills 30min before I eat. I have a lot of diarrhea. and lots of gas. What do y’all do for that? I have lot of stomach pains if I eat or if I don’t eat the doctor said I could eat whatever I could tolerate so I’m I’ve gotten so I’ll watch what I eat but I eat a lot of eggs for protein and now and then I eat whatever I want because I’m gonna pay for it anyway don’t matter. I have lots and lots of stomach pain. My biggest problem is the diarrhea it came get so bad.i eat then 5 to 10 minutes I am in the bathroom. The diarrhea got so bad that I just quit eating. I lost about 10 pounds and the doctor got upset but it was either eat and have diarrhea. I don’t eat and don’t have diarrhea. I chose not to eat but I knew I couldn’t keep that up, so I’m back to Eaton again they put me on some diarrhea pills which didn’t help no more than the regular diarrhea pills from the store so now they got me on xermelo 250 mg. And this medicine supposed to call constipation which it didn’t for me. I still had diarrhea and really bad stomach crowns after I took that and some other symptoms with it so I decided to cut it in half and take a half a pill every time I ate with the crayon 30 minutes before I eat, and that has helped a lot, does anybody else have any problem with severe diarrhea like I do?

Welcome, @jonell. Not eating may help stop the diarrhea, but it's not really a long-term plan, is it?
