Blood Work Shows Elevated Liver, Pancreas Levels. Stomach Swollen With Pain. Earlier Diagnosed With Sjogren S, Then As RSD
I would like to find an expert Dr. on RSD in Southern CA. In the Orange County Area preferably. My daughter has been diagnosed with this, and can t seem to find a doctor who can help her. Her blood work shows elevated liver and pancreas levels. Her stomach is extended as if she is 7 months pregnant, and is in a great deal of pain. Four years ago when this all started she was diagnosed with Sjogren s, and later another doctor said it is RSD. She has been to so many doctors in the last 4 years, that I can t even count them. Can anyone help?
Hi and welcome to HCM,thank you for your query. it does ot matte if she has elevated these findings if she doesnt have any symptoms related to liver or pancreas. Sjogren may be cause of liver and pancreatic duct obstruction but it should be verified by specific tests. Rsd is very rare and it is not the first thing to think of.treatment is very demanding,but the exact diagnosis should be established first,before it starts
Wish you good health. Regards
