That’s a shit gig
Assuming acute pancreatitis as you are in hospital and have been for some time?
Do you have hypertriglyceridemia by chance?
Ask for DiLuAdId (hydromorphone) if still in hospital. /s
Feel better
They should have been able to do a blood test to confirm this (one live Enzyme gets really elevated).
I have had pancreatitis 3 times so I feel your pain. It can be pretty bad and then the only cure is not to eat anything for like 4 days.
I think it’s hypertrilipidemia because it’s what I have. Genetically my triglycerides are really high (they have been in the thousands before) and even on medicine/eating right they still are above “normal” range.
aaaaaAAAAAAAAA
Mr type IV familial dyslipidemia

Yeah, it was like 3x what it should have been.
This is pretty much what they attributed it to, although mine weren’t in the 1000s. But my gallbladder was fine and I am not a heavy drinker, so that is what they were left with.
Docs have told me anything over 500 is extremely high risk for pancreatitis.
It is almost like government can’t run healthcare or anything else…

Formally diagnosed… tis EDS…
Edited
Which subtype? I actually don’t know which subtype I have other than it’s not Marfans. Do you feel relieved know that you know what’s going on?
More than likely hEDS. Have never had artierial rupture, colon perforation. I was told not to bother with genetic testing as the gene associated with hEDS hasn’t been isolated… and that there is likely more than one subtype of h-EDS
I’m likely not the only one in the family with it… albeit I am the most severely affected by it.
Quite a few on my mothers side have recurrent dislocations/sublaxations, frank joint instability and chronic pain.
Can be spontaneous genetic mutation, however given my familial history that seems unlikely.
There’s a criteria for diagnosing hEDS. You can look through it
On the one hand, I am relieved. Finally an answer to everything that has gone wrong with me over the years… on the other hand… it’s a huge blow.
If this is what 22 looks like, I sure as hell don’t want to be around when I’m 70…
Woah, that’s crazy.

Huge irritation for me. Particularly when trying to get info out of doctors at work. They will answer the first question in an email, and that is it. Then you have to go back and forth 3 more times to get all of the information you need.
