How To Get Rid Of Chronic Pancreatitis?
I was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis five months ago and the doctor put me on pancrealypase enzyme medicine and since then I have ankle edema a rash and extreme itching. Also once I found out I had pancreatitis and was admitted to the hospital there are red blood splotches appearing on my skin that seem to get worse with the symptoms. I am alcoholic but have cut way back, I know I am not suppose to drink at all.
