Chronic Pancreatitis?

Posted by jkarmazin @jkarmazin, Sep 14 8:42am

I was diagnosed with EPI and after a CAT scan & MRCP was told I have Asymptomatic Chronic Pancreatitis which is life altering. The radiologist said no Pancreatitis, but because of one calcium deposit, the Dr. Says I have it. I disagree. Anyone else have this? Am I just in denial?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Digestive Health Support Group.

Hello. EPI stands for Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency. You can research that diagnosis. It’s definitely not fun!
MRCP is Magnetic Resonance Pancreatography which is a type of MRI scan looking at your pancreatic and bile duct systems.
