I'm A 60 Year Old Lady With No Health Problems

I'm a 60 year old lady with no health problems until now. And on no medicine except dexilant. after my amylace blood test came back at 200 my doctor took me off of dexilant. My amylace went down to 110. He put me on gaviscon 2 four times a day. Then he has done a weekly blood test. It's been going up every week. Now it's 144. I have no pain. I had an MRI. SHOWED NOTHING. I HAD A CT. THE 2 radiologist said they were happy the way things looked. They said I had a slight thickening at my duodenum. And thought this was from my acid reflex or inflammation. And found no signs of Pancreatitis. Now then sending me in for another scope down my throat. First one showed hiatal hernia and acid reflex. But family doctor doesn't want me on stomach medicine as he feels this is why I'm having trouble with high amylace. Can my stomach problems be causing all of this with my amylace. I don't smoke. I use to have a glass of wine now and then. But they have told me not to have any wine at all for now. Would appreciate your opinion. Thank you
