Have you been tested for Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency?
If so are you taking Zenpep or Creon??? Or are you taking a nonprescription supplement?
Gastritis is very common with EPI even with prescription treatment. It takes time and a registered dietitian is a great source to help you figure out exactly what is best for you!
EPI can be very different for each individual.
For instance, you might be able to digest some foods that I cannot tolerate even with Zenpep. It’s a very unique disorder!
Of course if EPI has been ruled out entirely a registered dietitian is still a big help either way for anyone with IBS and are covered by many insurance plans.
All the best!
