[QUOTE="Shar67, post: 1243245"] If you read the post you will see link at top One of the biggest problem people have, you can join a group to ask yourself, is getting doctors to treat pancreatitis without asking how much alcohol do you drink, telling you to stop drinking alcohol and not believing if you don't or have stopped. The fact doctors are asking this makes it difficult to get the treatment you need straight away. As to how much alcohol causes pancreatitis, who knows, one glass of wine, 30 years of a bottle of wine a day. When people are diagnosed with pancreatitis and start googling it, they find that 1 it is caused by alcohol, 2 if it becomes chronic you will be dead within 5 years, a lot of my group and others have tried swamping internet with info that, 1 there are many reasons to get pancreatitis though alcohol may be a cause, 2 chronic is rare and can be managed if you follow a low fat diet and don't drink then your life expectancy should improve. The group also suggest you get a pancreatic specialist rather than a gastroendologist. [/QUOTE]
