Hello @marty1996
On Mayo Clinic's website, I found some information on Alpha 1 deficiency, however, it does address problems of the pancreas, but of the liver. I see that you have already posted on the Connect discussion on Alpha 1 deficiency. I hope that someone else may be able to answer your question about the pancreas problem.
