Hello all,
So after finally seeing some relief from my 6+ week battle with pouchitis I am getting around to addressing the AWESOME upper abdominal pain I have been experiencing for over a month now. My GI treated with prilosec thinking gastritis however the pain never went away and I am beginning to feel more and more like garbage. I had blood work done and can view it but have to wait for the doctor to read it and contact me and since I am impatient I am hoping someone might be able to shed some light of the lows and highs of it all. BTW - no gallbladder.
LIPASE SERUM high - 82 NORMAL 0-50
AMYLASE high - 118 NORMAL 28-100
BUN low - 6 NORMAL 7-25 (admittedly not that low)
They of course seem to have forgotten to do my iron AGAIN - I am always battling this and my B12. Any thoughts? She mentioned pancreatitis, anyone have advice. Thanks all!
