I suffer from chronic pancreatitus now for the last 5 years, the doctors don\'t know what brought it on, had to have bypass surgery almost 3yrs ago sine it got so bad, am currently having reoccurring pain. Yes i found the same thing helps, but usually in lay in a tub of hot water, as hot as i can stand it, which helps, no food, as my doctor calls it letting the pancrease rest, no alcohol whatsoever, I have not found anything natural to help with the symtoms, was wondering the same thing myself. please email me back at the above address so we can talk
