    I came across this video by accident and I couldn’t believe I wasn’t alone. I’ve struggled with pancreatitis for 30 years. My story is very similar to the people who have shared. The information was very helpful. When one person said they wish someone could feel this pain for a second so they could understand. I know have cysts in my pancreas. I have been diagnosed with IPMN when I was 31. I shared this video with all my family members. With hopes they could better understand this condition. I feel that hearing other people’s stories they could better understanding what I go through and not “ here we go again “ I thank all of you for sharing your stories and how you all have found ways to cope with a devastating condition.

    I went to the teaching hospital clinic of one of the attendees, about when this was filmed. “No evidence on imaging.” No treatment, because we “don’t see any evidence you have chronic pancreatitis.” Good-bye, good luck. Luckily, my gastroenterologist said “b___ s____,” and treated the symptoms. Then evidence is there now, but we’re still treating my symptoms, pretty successfully on the whole. Maybe he listened to your presentation?

    I'm appalled by the healthcare system in the West (I'm in the UK). I've had constant left side abdominal pain & nausea for over a year & as a 35 year old man, knowone seems to care. I finally got an ultrasound a few months ago. The practitioner told me at the time she could see fat infiltration in the liver & pancreas. My doctor sent me a text a week later, ignoring the pancreas discovery & told me I simply have fatty liver and should consider improving my diet. Fatty liver alone should not be causing these left side abdominal symptoms & my diet is good, but there was no suggestion of further investigation. I've pushed the matter and have now been referred for an endoscopy & awaiting a CT abdomen appointment. It's so discouraging to hear that people have been misdiagnosed & had unnecessary surgery as a result. I pray I can get to the bottom of this soon. Listening to this video I'm not convinced I have pancreatitis, my pain is a more constant dull ache that is made worse by lying on either side, but I am convinced the ignored fat infiltration of the pancrease has something to do with it. It feel like my pancrease is in trouble

( it was needs must; bovine gelatin, malic acid, sugar not that bad right thinks me, well, okay sugar not great in regards inflammation but ) anyways, was on hospital acute care bed were search engine check revealed [some] efficacy in regards to sudo cyst / malic acid. picked up 500g off of amazon. 1/2 teaspoon, warm water, also, creon caps, sporadic fasting ..fresh fruit, herbs & veg, exercise [ Qigong : pancreas related stretches also ] so far so good. appears to be 'melting' the pseudo cyst i think is a way to say.

    Interesting presentation. I'm a veteran with chronic pancreatitis. I was on a stable dose of opioids that helped me function but in February radically accepted that the VA is unwilling/unable to provide multi modal pain care if that care includes a narcotic. This is after years of medical gaslighting around pain and opioids. I stopped taking pain medicine and added VSED (voluntary stop eating drinking) to my Advanced Care Directive. I will live my ideals until the pain and loss of function become too great, and then I'm checking out.
