Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 35 year old male suffering from chronic pancreatitis since the past 5 years and had PD Stenting done several times. The last PD stenting was done in December 2010 and the stent is still in place. Lately, I have started having pains again. I went to see my Gastro and he prescribed snepdol. The problem is it works for a little while and then the pain comes back. Should the stent be replaced?
