Hello
High fiber and diarrhea do not go together. Go low fiber. How much weigh have you lost? Where are you losing weight, arms, stomach or elsewhere? Continue to eat low fat food but you must get enough calories or you will lose more weight.

I have EPI also. Weight loss is what drove me to a gastroenterologist. She said supplement enzymes are not strong enough and prescribed Pertze. I think it’s pretty much the same as Creon. I’ve been on it plus HCL now for 6 Yrs and it works well. If I miss taking it for any reason, I will drop two pounds.
