Hello Caryn: I am a pancreatic and breast cancer survivor and Registered and Licensed Dietitian (still practicing) in our state (MN.) Here is the short story. (Please let your MDs guide you.) I took Creon, a pancreatic enzyme, each time I ate, per my MD orders. Be sure to follow the medication direction, if your MD prescribes this med. I ate a lot of fast digesting carbohydrates, read that to mean "a lot of sugar containing" foods. Odd for a dietitian, but I could digest them without much difficulty. Eat small meals. Don't overload with fiber and/or volume of foods, including fiber. I had to eat what I could tolerate. Stay hydrated. Eat adequate protein. (Think about using a supplement, such as Boost, etc.) I do not work for any medical nutritional company and am not promoting one product over the other. Try and see what you like and can tolerate. The process of the gut adapting will take time. Be patient and pat yourself on the back a lot. At almost 15 years out, I see a Mayo Gastroenterologist for guidance. I also use my experience as a Dietitian to help me. There are other things I can teach you, but I don't want you to be overwhelmed. Just take it very easy, please. And here is to your good healing. Mayr Boros, RDN, LD.
