Dear Ladyaceintx1
I am very curious to know where you copied this information concerning Covid and its effect on the pancreas. Is this from a scientific journal? Thank you
Sincerely Susan

Hi @susanpmadigan, you are right to ask about the origins of the text quoted by @ladyaceintx1 in the original posting. I have added it there.

Here is the case study write up:
- COVID-19 as a probable cause of pancreatic injury https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9548912/

For everyone: it is important to note that this paper recounts a suspected correlation describing 2 cases, concluding that "COVID-19 infection may trigger pancreatic injury in some patients."

Case studies help trigger further investigation in clinical studies, but are not conclusive evidence until further study is done.

Susan,
Yes, as answered by Colleen. Because I'm still waiting for my GI to determine if my Chronic Pancreatitis is an autoimmune type, I was doing my own research and found the information relating COVID-19 to Pancreatitis . I had COVID in December of 2021 and am considering it as a possible cause.
