hi,
As you have pancreatitis, your symptoms like chest pain, back pain are likely to be due to it. dizziness and fainting spells are seen in kidney diseased patients due to uremic autonomic neuropathy, lead by sudden changes in posture.
your problems are understandable and i regret them. you may manage conservatively and as long as you stick on to the prescribed drugs and check your kidney status regularly, life threatening issues can be avoided to the best.
hope this helps.
