Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tsmurthwaite" data-source="post: 2640849" data-attributes="member: 105476"><p>I had acute pancreatitis twice - 1st lead on to sepsis then septic shock and lost most of my bowels so have short bowel syndrome and an ileostomy. Also started creon then and a year later had 2nd bout which damaged my pancreas beyond repair and am now also type 3c taking 2 types of insulin. Because of my short bowel syndrome and malabsorbtion issues (my food transit time is about 10mins from mouth to bag), I was told to empty my creon pills into a small kiddies yogurt and eat it mid meal. This way apparently it stays in my system long enough to take effect. My pancreatitis was apparently caused by gallstones so my gallbladder has been removed but pancreatitis still doesn't function. I'm taking Lansoprazol too. If I don't take my creon and have a larger meal, my ileostomy output increases and I notice it's more 'fatty looking' if that makes sense so although I wasn't convinced it does much, I can't afford for my output to increase as my kidneys were damaged by the septic shock.</p></blockquote><p></p>
