Did you take the poop test that gives current enzyme levels? Mine was 129 and I take 36,000 with each meal. Thanks for the info; I'm going to ask my gastro about this, as prescription replacements are very expensive.

I did have the poop test.Mine was 31.5. I fried a bigger dose but ended up with a bowel obstruction. I have gastroparesis so I take miralax ( 2 scoops 2x/day which worked until I started with Creon ).I have liquid diarrhea every day sometimes 10 times but I’ve gained about 20 lbs. since I began Creon. Anyone have that problem?

Hi,
I did take the test in May—number was 24.
Reading these post has increased my concern for EPI diagnosis.
I have chosen not to do the therapy, due to Pork enzymes source.
I am pursuing a natural source approach—-any suggestions? Hope everyone suffering from deseases find relief and total restoration.
