Hi, I have been diagnose with mesenteric panniculitis and superior mesenteric artery stenosis, I also am diabetic type 2 and have lupus. I have alot of pain and cant eat much , i was on prednisone the first 5 days now done, and ompprazolone. I am wondering since i have a hard time eating, causes alot of bloating, gas and extreme pain, what would be good for me too eat. I am always hungry and my sugars are somewhat ok but i know that will change since i cant digest food. I just got diagnose and waiting to see specialist . so wondering what i can eat that would be best. even in the very smallest portions/
