I’ve never taken Creon!
I was prescribed Zenpep to take six times a day.
Fortunately we found that dose was way too much for me.
I only take one Zenpep a day and it totally works for me.
No side effects whatsoever.
I do have a very regimented diet and track everything I eat on my Fitbit app to ensure that I am eating enough.
I have gained my muscles back and up to 106!!!
I have totally eliminated sucrose from my diet and have no issues with eating protein, complex carbs and fats. I can eat all the fruit I want and am content with avoiding desserts unless I personally make them myself using stevia.
For instance I made homemade ice cream with stevia and fresh peaches and whipping cream and had no problem with digesting all that yumminess.
My gastro dr told me that my adherence to the diet is what has made the difference in the minimum dosage of Zenpep. After 30+ years of misdiagnosis I am more than happy to finally have a solution.
No more embarrassing accidents, no more agonizing cramping, no more dashing out of rooms in a panicked race to find a bathroom.
Any further questions, just ask💪🏽
