Have the doctors mentioned anything about managing the swelling of the pancreas with diet? I don’t have a definitive diagnosis but have had all sorts of pain with my back and under ribs this year. Scan after scan keeps coming back normal, though mrcp showed iron deposition over liver and pancreas. I am currently on nortriptyline for the shooting nerve pain in my back and ribs. Its not helping very much with the aching back pain though. Doing physical therapy also no help so far. The days when I eat the least are my best relatively pain free days, but I cant keep losing weight, that’ll put me in the hospital too!
