I was diagnosed about 7 months ago with MRI and MRCP tests. At the time I was experiencing change in bowel habits,(loose , flat and frequent) low elastase level, weight loss, fatigue, gas, bloating, etc. I was sent to Mayo for diagnosis because all the testing by my GI doc didn't confirm anything except the IPMN and my symptoms continued. I have gotten my appetite back and have regained most of the 10 lbs. I lost (weigh 107 lbs. now. I still have all the other symptoms with increased mid back pain. My doctor here has put me on a low FODMAP diet and will start it tomorrow...don't have high hopes.

Good luck to you

I felt the same way about the low FODMAP diet, but it did wonders for me. Not a magic bullet, but the change after one week was pretty shocking, I hope it works well for you. Good luck!

Hello @montanasky

I hope you find the low FODMAP diet helpful. It has made a difference for me and others.

I would enjoy hearing from you after you try the eating plan. Will you post an update?
