Second bout of Pancreatitis - Dr?

4 replies

facedowninthedirt · 28/09/2019 11:25

I’ve got what I’m about 98% sure is pancreatitis. They never found a cause the last time I had it and after a 3 day hospital stay, I left with no more info. I suffered for about a mont afterwards and then gradually got better.

My question is; I think I’ve got it again now, am I supposed to get back in touch with GP and push for diagnosis/treatment or just wait it out at home?

Yes, definitely GP.

I'd definitely go to the GP. Sorry to be all doom but pancreatitis can be a pre cursor to pancreatic cancer, so I'd definitely get it explored. Good luck Thanks

I'd be going to A&E. Pancreatitis can be very very serious

A&E, pancreatitis is very serious.
