MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN SUFFERING WITH PANCREATITUS FOR 3 YEARS AND IT HAS GOT WORSE. HE HAS HAD 5 ATTACKS IN 12 WEEKS. WE HAVE TRACKED IT DOWN TO HIS CHOLESTROL AND WITH TABLETS IF WE CAN GET IT DOWN TO BELOW AVERAGE IT HELPS. OUR GP TOOK HIM OFF OF THE CHOLESTROL TABLETS IN SEPTEMBER HENCE THE 5 ATTACKS. NO ONE SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO HELP, HE JUST WANTS SOMEONE TO TALK TO, HE FEELS ISOLATED. WE CAN NEVER ARRANGE HOLIDAYS, JUST HAD TO CANCEL OUR CHRISTMAS TRIP TO GERMANY THATS THE SECOND HOLIDAY THIS YEAR CANCELLED. NO ONE WILL INSURE HIM SO WE HAVE TO TAKE POT LUCK. HE IS 39 YEARS OLD AND HAS JUST LOST 2 STONE IN 12 WEEKS, I AM SO WORRIED I HAVE TAKEN THINGS IN MY OWN HANDS. I HAVE STARTED HIM ON A DETOXING MACHINE WHICH DRAWS ALL THE MUCK OUT OF HIS FEET INTO A BOWL OF WATER, IT IS DISGUSTING WHAT COMES OUT. I AM GOING TO PUT HIM ON B12 AND SELENIUM, PROBABLY INJECTIONS AND HIS DIET IS SO GOOD I THINK THAT IS WHY HE IS SURVIVING. HE HAS DECIDED NOT TO DRINK THE ONE GLASS OF WINE HE HAS ONCE A WEEK WHICH IS THE ONLY BIT OF SOCIALISING WE HAVE LEFT. THE POOR MAN IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE AND WE HAVE SUPPOSEDLY THE BEST PANCREATIC DOCTOR IN THE COUNTRY. PLEASE WRITE BACK WITH ANY SUGGESTIONS AND ANYTHING I FIND THAT HELPS WILL LET YOU KNOW.
