Brief Answer: Please find detailed answer below Detailed Answer: Hi XXXXX, Thanks for writing to us. I have read through your query in detail. You seem to be suffering from chronic pancreatitis. You may need to make certain lifestyle changes to make a quick recovery and comfortable life. First you must discuss pain management with your doctor. This is among the most troublesome symptoms and needs to be addressed completely. If the pain does not respond to medicines then you might need a nerve block. Your digestive enzymes need to be supplemented as in pancreatitis deficiency of digestive enzymes may cause long term vomiting and diarrhea. A carefully planned diet is necessary for you. It should contain less fat and more essential nutrients. Stopping alcohol and smoking is recommended should you be doing it. Please drink lots of fluids and fresh juices. To keep yourself mentally strong please involve yourself in stress relieving activities. Follow up with your doctor regularly. Wishing you good health. Do write back if you have any doubts.
