They did multiple tests
She was told she had calcifications on her pancreas
Diagnosis
Chronic pancreatitus
Fast forward to this week
She had ultrasound. Upper body
Ultrasound lower
And MRI
AND ang1 ? Blood test
Tests came back yesterday
ALL ORGANS UNREMARKABLE
ZERO PANCREATITIS
Pancreas looks normal unremarkable
Hospital said calcifications
How can my wife go from calcifications and chronic pancreatitus diagnisis
To today

listen guy ...there is a difference between various tests as per detecting power of various diseses ...as far as pancreatitis is concerned CT and MRI are better than ultrasound ..now calcification is feature of chronic pamcreatitis ..and once calcification develops in a organ it persists ...problem is that all these tests are doctor dependent sometimes two doctor give different opinion on same person with same investigation modality ..what are the symptoms and blood test report ..
