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 m a 49 y/o white female. I started with MCD and was placed on a steroid regimen. I took 80mg a day for almost 3 years. I am now at ESRD and have dialysis three times a week. About a year after becoming diagnosed with hinder disease I started suffering from debilitating abdominal pain primarily RLQ. I have had a TAH with BSO, chole, and appy. We have had numerous endoscopes and colonoscopies. All normal. I m now having diffuse pain through the abdomen radiating it my back. I was finally allowed to have a CT with contrast and it showed pancreatic atrophy. I also have fibromyalgia, osteoporosis, hyper parathyroidism. The pain have increased exponentially over the last three years. What are my options. I m going to see my primary care physician next week. Also I am not showing signs of DM but haven t had an a1c yetd

the symptoms are related to pancreatic disease and due to fibrosis in the region with trapping of nerve or pressure on the fine nerve bundles
you could consult a rheumatologist and once the primary disease is treated all symptoms will be out!
all the best!
