Suggest Treatment For Acute Pancreatitis
I m 36. I have had 2 episodes this year of acute pancreatis. Once in April and again in October. I don t drink alcohol. I have now had 3 contrast enhanced cat scan, 2 abdominal ultrasounds, 2 MRI one with MRCP. I ve seen an endocrinologist as well and no one can help me find a cause. It s such a rare disease to get it twice so close together seems unreal. I m scared of cancer. I m only 36. Non drinker, triglycerides are slightly high like 175-225, I m vitamin D deficient (12), history of kidney stones, Csec in 2008.

Hello and welcome to Healthcamagic.
You should not be scared of cancer since you 've done very accurate diagnostic tests which can rule out cancer for sure. This may not be caused only by alcohol consumption,but also biliary stones and some other benign issue so cancer is last thing to think of
I hope I have answered your query. I wish ou a nice day. .
