Do I have Pancreatitis?

You may want to go see a specialist. In my experience a CT scan or MRI cannot diagnose pancreatitis except if you have a pseudocyst caused by extremely high pancreatic enzyme levels for an extended period of time. Lipase levels of 104 are within the normal range. I'd go see a specialist to get clarification. Have you had your gallbladder removed?

Yes GB was removed 6 years ago. Went to see a specialist yesterday. He said I have pancreatitis. Put me on steroids for 2 weeks and wants a repeat MRI. I don't feel like I have pancreatitis. I really don't have symptoms of it, but the EUS showed that I did have it.
