My daughter has had problems w/ constipation since almost day one. When she takes her pain meds, they constipate her. She is 11 now. I wonder, can you tell the difference from pancreatic pain and the constipation pain? We are wondering if she cannot tell the difference. Sometimes she is in so much pain and will not take the morphine. Well, we just returned from Rochester and alot of tests later, (Colonoscopy, biopsies of the stomach, colon and whatever else,-found out she is not allergic to any foods and then had a Cat scan. They could not find anything until they got to the cat scan. Her pancreatic duct is at a 6.6 in diameter right now. Alot of scar tissue and hardening of the head. She has had 2 other sets of stents already and they want to do anouther ERCP on her on May 3rd. If they feel that stents are no longer able to work, they will do the FREY proceedure (Like the Puestow, but a little different I guess) if she is still having alot of problems. This disease is an ongoing affair and I thank GOD that this website is out there now. Sometimes as a caregiver to someone with this is maddening, because you just do not know what to do sometimes.My ex and my daughter live with this each and every day and hate to see them in so much pain. Others do not understand, no matter how much you try to explain this to them. Thank you everyone!! I may have even talked my ex in to joining this Forum.
