T1 diabetics as a rule do not need them, the only thing not working is the cells that produce insulin, other functions of the pancreas work just fine.

But people with T3C diabetes (diabetes caused by damage to the pancreas) usually need creon.

What type of diabetes do you have, and has your endo prescribed creon?

I've had it twice. The first one took 3 years but the second was much faster (a year?). I found physio helped but there are quite a few threads here about this and people found that different treatments helped them.

This thread might be of interest as it has a lot of replies

Frozen Shoulder

Hi everyone, I'm just trying to get some advice about frozen shoulder. I have 2 and have had for around 3 years. Still so painful and such limited movement it really affects my day to day life and it's starting to really get me down! The constant pain! The GP has said on more than one occasion...

Plenty of non diabetics get them but diabetics seem slightly more prone? They do mend eventually.
 
Hi just stumbled across this your creon dose depends on your body weight, size of the meal and fat content. It’s better to take more than not enough.
Do you take ppis with your creon this actually helps for your pert to work better.
I’m on a higher dose 100,000 with snacks double with meals my last FET was 166 so mild EPI.
There is a great u tube channel that was helpful to me
Here the link
