Hello,
* Considering the history of pancreatitits, there can be a possible issues with dehydration or electrolyte imbalance causing hydronephrosis of the kidney or else giving pain at kidney area with nausea.
Kindly get a clinical examination with basic lab tests and ultrasound of the abdomen & pelvis for further workup and best possible guidelines of management before the condition worsens or cause systemic damage.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
