Does anyone take Pancrease, digestive enzymes?

This won't answer your question, but I've been reading a lot about pancreatitis, and while there are some known causes, i.e alcoholism, often there is no cause (or one that can be identified). You likely are just one of those lucky folks, as you said. I think you have to be a serious alcohol drinker to blame that, otherwise there would be a lot more people with pancreatitis walking around!

I'm curious about your enzyme levels, which are elevated. Is that typical of pancreatitis? That they are elevated, not low? I suppose I could look into that....

My lipase & amylase levels are high & the dr. says I have mild pancreitis. I get checked next month to see if they gone higher. Does anyone with this problem have a swollen stomach? My stomach sticks out & I am small frame & always had a flat stomach so I was just curious if anyone else has experienced it?

My Lipase was elevated. Amylase was always good. Dr. thinks I have an auto immune pancreas. Being on Omeprazole for 16 years didn't help...in fact probably made it worse.
