    • Close Pancreatitis

      I have been ill for about 18 months and have been diagnosed with SOD, severe gastroparesis and have a gastric pacemaker and recently have been diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis. I continue to have chronic pain, somedays worse than others, especially after eating or drinking anythng. I have tried all different types of treatments, including a celiac block, different medicine treatments and now will be starting sandostatin injections soon to shut down my pancreas.
