I was diagnosed with EPI 3 years ago after Covid. Lost 60 lbs in 10 days.
I am still on pancreatic enzymes which is a pain because there are so many pills, but wouldn't be able to leave the house without them.
Sorry to hear your going through this.

I also developed EPI having covid and 3 months of diarrhea. There is a connection between covid and EPI. I am finding it fairly easy to manage the creon pills and eating healthy food.
I miss having a glass of wine, but can manage the non drinking aspect of this disease.
I just had a blood test that shows low vitamin E. So I'm working on that. I hope you are managing.
