My lovely DH (59) who is NEVER unwell was admitted to hospital late last night after two days of stomach pain and feeling unwell.
CT scan and bloods revealed acute pancreatitis and he’s on fluids and pain relief.
Going forward it looks like a low fat diet and no alcohol, that’s doable although a bit sad as we love our meals / drinks out at weekends to unwind from work.
We are meant to be going to Greece for a week on 16th September though, any idea if this should be cancelled? Naturally I’ll speak to the doctor and get their thoughts but has anyone with experience of this know the timeline for recovery? He was able to walk around, not vomiting etc just no appetite and a constant gnawing pain.
He’s hating being in hospital already, been in about 12 hours so far, he doesn’t make a good patient!
