@nyonifara, this sounds like a challenging situation for you.
Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas. Heavy alcohol use can cause and worsen pancreatitis. Long-standing inflammation in the pancreas is a risk factor for cancer of the pancreas.
Has your husband's pancreatitis recently progessed and he has also been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer?
