[QUOTE="992947x, post: 2405878, member: 291252"] Hey. I am sorry you have had such bad problems. RE Pancreatitis, both times the pain was so bad that I had to have morphine on a drip for a week or so. When the events happened, initially I could only lay on the floor and could not get up before I was taken to hospital. My blood pressure went through the roof on both times, with readings around 250 / 150. I was in a bit of a daze both times to be honest, with the drugs and pain, but the raised amylase in my blood was what they initially used to suspect pancreatitis - then I had CT scans etc, which showed my pancreas was enlarged / enflamed. In the lead up to both episodes, I had a dull ache in my back (ribcage height), and I couldn't stop eating and drinking - my body just craved it. I was probably having 10k calories a day! The pain seemed to circulate around the ribcage. Sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right, sometimes at the front or back. [/QUOTE]
