I have had that and several other tests in the past. They put me on a feeding tube and pump 10 year's ago. I feed into my small intestine. But with this and my chronic pancreatitis I don't know what is causing my sudden weight loss of 15 pounds. I have been this way for 3 months now and my body has nothing left but skin and bones. I just hope that they figure out what changed. I am dangerously thin. Plus my intestines keep cramping and my nausea is non stop. Zofran barley helps at all. Thank you!
