pancreaticdivisum

years of pain has made me feel like I don’t really know who I am anymore . I went from working as a police officer , 45-50 hr weeks as well as a diligent parent to my two beautiful children .... to having to find a low pay desk job and being half the man/dad I used to be. I feel like it’s still getting worse physically / mentally and my mood slips a little lower every day . 😢
how did I get here ...... I really miss me #ChronicPain #Parenting #pancreaticdivisum #Depression

I’ve been suffering with abdominal pain in the left upper side for years. despite many tests dr’s tell me I don’t have any inflammation or unusual findings and ruled out pancreatitis. I do have however pancreatic divisum which dr’s seem very unknowledgable about and I’m left unsure why I’m in pain. the function seems normal and they’re aren’t advising surgery etc. would love to hear from anyone with divisum about their experience and what (if any) relief they’ve found ?? #chronic pain #pancreaticdivisum

I’ve had pain in one place for years. Left upper side of abdomen . I’ve had So many tests / scans etc and the only thing found was pancreatic divisum but there was no inflammation and Dr’s wouldn’t commit to whether this was the cause . I honestly feel like I’m going mad . The pain Never goes away . I cry every damn day. Has anyone had anything similar!?!? is this physical or mental/emotional pain !!??? Can you have Fibro in just one location !?? #pancreaticdivisum #Pain

I’m thinking about starting a patient advocate service for pancreatic sufferers! Whether it’s from chronic pancreatitis, acute pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer or some where in between! I have a degree in social work and I’ve suffered for 5 years now with some form of pancreatitis! Or should I say everything but pancreatic cancer!!Any advice on where to start? #ChronicPancreatitis #PancreaticCancer #HereditaryPancreatitis I #ExocrinePancreaticInsufficiency ##pancreaticdivisum
